    I for one disagree, fedora refuses to boot on my desktop. It literally throws a corrupted init file error after the first install or strait up freezes without any errors codes. Also Ubuntu nuf said.

        I tried to get help on the subject but they just call me an idiot. I don’t know what to say, it installs and when I reboot it just locks up or shows a decompression error. No logs because it doesn’t even initialize past grub and no log errors during install. Don’t have any issue with nobara Linux so idk.

          I guess you could say it’s easier until it’s not and my hardware doesn’t like to play nice. Arch and Gentoo are so flexible that I can set it up to work out of the box on anything.

          I just got tired of fighting a finicky installer refusing to work or trying to make sense of what the installer did after the fact while I try to add support for hardware and software. I run fedora on my surface pro 3 but I need to wipe the partition table first. I get an invalid image error and it boots into the already installed os if I don’t.

          Linux is Linux after that and what you can do on fedora you can just as easily do on arch, Ubuntu, Linux mint, or zorin os, etc.

      Sounds like a formatting issue my dude. If you couldn’t get Ubuntu working you may just need to go back to windows distros

        Ubuntu works, I just don’t like snaps or canonical. I’m just not a big fan of the choices they made over their history and would never use their distro for anything. I put my mother on fedora and Linux mint because I personally don’t trust the company. (she has an old laptop and my old gaming pc)

        It’s ok if you like it, they provide real value for people looking for ease of use and better community support.
