Examples could be things like specific configuration defaults or general decision-making in leadership.
What would you change?
Fedora
- not made in the US so their images can ship nonfree drivers and codecs
- thus they had ARM images for Atomic variants!
- flathub instead of fedora flatpaks
- KDE first instead of GNOME (GNOME is okay and very nice in many parts, but absurdly lacking in others)
I like the rest. It would be cool if they could adopt musl like Alpine, glibc is a mess and you basically need to compile every software against musl manually to use it on Fedora.
Apart from that, best Distro ever.
It would be cool if it officially brought back KDE Plasma.
(Linux Mint)I’m using plasma on LMDE, are you telling me they don’t officially support it?
Just in general: More sane defaults, less RTFM. Sure, you can configure everything, but MUST you? A lot of opensource developers seem to believe that configurability is a get-out-of-jail-free card for having to provide a good user experience out of the box.
Being on Debian haha
I would make Debian and Arch be deterministic like NixOS, but with a different language and less overhead. I really like the principle but the implementation is subpar.
For Arch, you may like a project called aconfmgr.
If it wasn’t written in bash… 😢
Fedora Silverblue.
I want to be able to play YouTube videos in Firefox. And video files on desktop. Layering on rpmfusion didn’t help. And why will videos play in Gnome Web but not Firefox ugh.
Same issue as me. If they simply where not US based they could ship working images without the trouble.
