Dangerous opinion, I’ve recently moved to Fedora after Ubuntu and after customising it on the GNOME desktop, it’s literally Ubuntu (But better) in every way except no snaps.
Personally as someone who got the ground running using Ubuntu as my 1st Linux distro, fedora is a comfortable transfer and I really like their spins.
Sure DNF can be slow but you can fix that and sure redhat can be a little… difficult with their decisions.
What do you think of Fedora? So far I enjoy the stability combined with near-arch levels of getting new updates!
Some people say it’s “evil” since some drama with RedHat or something? I actually never looked into that drama and it’s probably overreaction of someone but has anyone heard of it or an idea what it’s about?
I am on Fedora. Beware fedora has SElinux enabled. That can cause you issues if you follow a guide written for Ubuntu.

That would be Debian, friend.
Debian is awesome but only if you don’t care about having the newest features and updates.
True. I can’t understand why anyone would choose having the newest features over stability. But each to their own.
DNF is getting rewritten in C++ for next release to make it as fast as pacman
I recently switched to Fedora after roughly two decades of using Ubuntu (started with Warty Warthog), Debian and their derivatives. Feels oddly comfortable, and strangely nostalgic having started using in Linux with Red Hat 24 years ago. I think both Ubuntu and Fedora have their issues, as well as their strengths. It just boils down to what issues and strengths are most important to you.
