Fedora, it fucking slaps and worked right out of the box. I’m using it for work and play on my main rig! I dual boot for some very specific hardware things that are not normal, but other than that it’s been seamless! When I booted into Windows 10 again, they auto installed copilot… Glad to be done with this crap.

    all the factual corrections here i think are correct; i didn’t look anything up was just going from memory.

    but

    Not their fault lol

    idk who is forcing them to use it without fixing for years? seems like they could have agency if they wanted to. good someone is improving it. speed is one thing. also configuration options, keyboard shortcuts, and not crashing 1/3 of the time would be good. but I’m done with fedora I gave it an honest try. lots of people like it so there must be something to it, just not for me. which is part of what’s great for linux— you don’t have to suffer other people’s tastes.

    Nix on top of Fedora

    well if it works for you then it works. sounds kind of elaborate for a beginner. i think nix is absolutely perfect for certain users; i might end up there one day. (after i learn emacs.)

    now that you remind me, i think distrobox is actually their recommended method. i got bored/lost in the documentation of that and didn’t get it functional. tho i understand it works well once you get the hang of it. then you have unlimited possibilities.
