Two years into full-time Linux and I’m finally burning the distro-hopping cycle. I fell for the Arch/AUR trap for a while, but I got tired of spending my weekends debugging file manager crashes instead of maintaining my home lab.

Switched back to Fedora, and it’s boring in exactly the way I need it to be. It’s a stable launchpad for my projects, not the project itself.

      Fedora recently provided some exciting developments in the Linux world, and it’s genuinely interesting to follow.

      It’s also reasonably new and reasonably stable, which is often so much of a pain point to balance.

      Also, I mean, it is the distro Linus himself prefers.

      Fedora is solid these days, well the last few years. It’s been so easy and everything is up to date, not lagging behind lke Ubuntu.

      Ubuntu been awful since the beginning, always buggy always needing to be rinstalled at some point.

      It lives on hype alone. I would choose anything over Ubuntu.

      I don’t get it, but I also haven’t used Fedora since like 2007. I settled on Ubuntu for a while then jumped ship to Arch, and maybe for the first time I haven’t been wondering where I’d go to next because something frustrated me with the os lol

        You know? Like, there’s zero friction with Arch, I feel like. It’s just out of your way.
