    Because i want the latest drivers and packages

    Why do you want that over a stable system that’s been curated for gaming?

        Not really – it’s Fedora with a handful of gaming add-ons curated by arguably the top name in Linux gaming.

          Ok null but I wish it has More Devs in case of maintaining it in addition to adding updates to gaming software

            Regardless, I’m still not getting why you’d want an unstable gaming experience over a stable one.

              Ok its because of my trust on the fedora after redhat closing up their source code and making it paid and they’re adding telemetry in fedora 45 and up so that’s why i have left fedora

                Redhat isn’t closing their source code – it’s open to customers. And unless you need to use RHEL for some reason, it shouldn’t have any impact. Fedora is upstream from Redhat, not the other way around.

                The telemetry Fedora is adding is extremely sensible, and also opt-in. So not sure what the concern is there.

                But regardless, that has nothing to do with rolling versus stable releases. There are plenty of other stable distributions not based on Fedora.

                I’m not understanding why you’d prefer software that’s more likely to be buggy or broken for your gaming rig over a stable distribution. What’s the motivation?

                  ok my bad but the main problem with me is I don’t know fedora has WiFi drivers by default or not in the latest versions so what should I do to fix it

                    Depends on your hardware – but to be blunt, that question alone tells me a rolling release would be a headache for you.

                    Have you Googled your hardware and “Fedora wifi drivers” to see if there’s a fix? Because that’s the sort of thing you’re likely to need to do with a rolling release as bleeding-edge drivers get pushed to your system and things stop working.
