I’ve been seeing a lot of people trying to find the perfect Linux distro to replace Windows 10 with, now that its support is ending, and Ubuntu is usually the first name that comes up. It makes sense since it is stable, beginner-friendly, and has a huge community that makes getting started with Linux easier.
But as someone whose first Linux distro was Ubuntu, and who has used it for over half a decade across different PCs, I’ve realized it might not be the smartest choice anymore. Instead, Fedora Silverblue turned out to be exactly what I was looking for. Even if you are new to Linux, it might actually be the better option.
fedora’s declaration that they’re officially okay with including “ai” generated code in the project has me shopping around for a new distro. CachyOS seems like it’s really soliid choice these days.
I’ve never tried silver blue, but I can confirm that fedora in general has a very good balance of “Just works” and “Tinkerability”
E: I’m a little worried about red hat with their history, but if something happens I’m totally prepared to jump ship to an ArchOS, probably endeavor or manjaro
I’m more concerned with the current ownership.
Truly a shame, there are a few really talented and knowledgeable folks I knew at RH are no longer there. Even recently there was an RTO push(to drive people away) about a month ago, and then a round of layoffs just a few days ago.
IBM has an unfortunate history with acquisitions, and I fear RH will be just another footnote in a series of IBM mergers and acquisitions.
