I’d like to settle on a distro, but none of them seem to click for me. I want stability more than anything, but I also value having the latest updates (I know, kind of incompatible).
I have tested Pop!_Os, Arch Linux, Fedora, Mint and Ubuntu. Arch and Pop being the two that I enjoyed the most and seemed the most stable all along… I am somewhat interested in testing NixOS although the learning curve seems a bit steep and it’s holding me back a bit.
What are you using as your daily drive? Would you recommend it to another user? Why? Why not?
It got me worried too but finding out that Fedora is practically Red Hat’s testing ground to test new features before they end up in the paid product is a relief. Red Hat has no reason to pull the plug of their own coffee machine they’ve been using for the longest time, particulary when kind people come along and maintain it for free. It’s just that fewer than usual come because of Red Hat’s changes: Quite a few people of Fedora have left the community. Not just because of the recent stuff but the CentOS fiasco a few years back.
I’m based and think that company backed distros are the easiest and stablest OS. There is one that ticks your boxes and as much as it pains me to tell you, it is Ubuntu. However you should look into its derivatives that choose not to employ Snap first: Mint and Pop. :) Addendum: OpenSUSE
