Ive been using fedora, my first distro, for about 5 years. I’m about to switch because it just doesn’t do some things I want, or not without a ton of config. I got it because it came up as “best distro for coding” when I googled it, and I was just beginning to code.

I can’t imagine its that much better than like Ubuntu though, which is what I think I’ll switch to. Meanwhile there’s several just complete and total roadblocks ive hit because of the distro. Kubernettes and Docker just doesn’t work for me. I was trying a teat install of CiviCRM and never got past the download. Recently, when trying to install Graphene on a new phone, Fedora in fastboot just refuses to recognize it. In the process of trying to work around this limitation, I somehow removed myself from the sudo su group, and fixing it has been a chore.

Its like every time I want to do x, it isn’t supported. Coding and developing on it is fine, for my personal projects. If I wanna do anything more than run a script though, its been nothing but hardship.

Its been a pretty good distro for me, but I have a dislike for extended config and sysadmin tasks and troubleshooting, and on my personal projects I keep hitting roadblocks over and over on Fedora. Open to other suggestions, but Ubuntu seems the most straightforward
