Genuinely curious noob here, isn’t fedora opensource and as a result relatively low risk when it comes to spyware/backdoors baked in?

there's too much to concisely say
the linux rabbit hole is ultimately a waste of time and sanity, a lot of it is unironic gaslighting and lies;
people have a hard time accepting it but we're at the point where a mainstream linux dekstop environment like fedora is slower, bloated, buggier, even more overly complicated than windows;
windows 10 ltsc is ultimately what you want

it's a bloated puppet of redhat designed for goys, redhat loves pushing their experimental and controversial changes to it before infecting every other distro with them, it genuinely feels like using a vibecoded jeet distro.

>it's just not obscure enough/too easy to use for faggots itt
debian is not obscure and mogs it. fedora is objectively a jeet distro.
if you are a straight white man and have tried atleast 4 different distros and still settle with fedora, i doubt you really are white afterall

Fedora isn't a desktop environment. You are thinking of gnome and yes you should stop using that crap.

You're actually brain dead. Muh games isn't even an argument for windows anymore. Windows is just jeet spyware trash at this point.

No you weren't. I know you don't actually use it because it works fine. Plasma 6.x has been stable and even 5.x worked on my machine. I encountered more problems with windows than any Linux desktop. Back when I used Windows 10, when that was the latest thing, I would make it habit of just reinstalling once a year to avoid Windows rot.

trips of truth
>>
>>107091779
Yes, Fedora and all its software is open source. They even go the extra mile to avoid shipping proprietary media codecs (which you can install yourself).
From a merely Openess standpoint, Fedora is very ahead of Ubuntu(canonical). If your worries stem from Red Hat glowing then just avoid RHEL which is their real OS for corpo shit.

I'm going to save you a lot of reading.

Your choice of desktop environment will probably be more impactful on your linux experience than your choice of distro unless you go for something like Arch, and even that is mostly just a larger initial cliff to climb before you end up in the same place. People are insanely autistic about distros but they're 90% doing the same shit in slightly different ways and you have to get down to very specific use cases before a specific distro can't meet your needs.

None of them are demanding your loyalty you can hop to another whenever you want if you think a particular one is shit . Unlike the transition from windows to linux you don't have to find alternatives for all of your packages, only a few. If you stick with the same desktop environment switching is even easier. People will get into endless autism wars over whether you're typing apt or dnf in the terminal to do the same commands.

The number of linux distros could increase tenfold over the next decade and people would still tell you that we are six months from a company finally planting its roots deep enough to seize the entirety of free software, and that it's all personally your fault because picked X as a daily driver over the more free Y and signed a deal with the devil that has doomed us all. Half the time they aren't even right about how free or non-free something is as you can already see with people thinking Fedora is some closed source Windows esque distro or government honeypot just because it's related to a large company.

Now that you have read this you no longer have to click on another linux thread on /g/ ever except for going to the friendly general specifically only to answer or ask helpful questions.

>>
>>107093686
I think picking Bazzite or Nobara doesn't make a difference. I've been using Bazzite for a while now, and Nobara before that, and both get the job done. Only difference I could think of is that Nobara is a one-man project while Bazzite has a whole team behind it, so make of that what you will.

NTA but people like Bazzite a lot because it's immutable and made with gaming in mind. Haven't used it though.
I have used Nobara however, the package management with the GUI is not something I particularly enjoy, but it's a solid distro.
Great choice Anon
>>
I don't understand Fedora love. What has oracle ever done that was positive? You're just beta testing redhat for free. Enjoy your applets I guess.
>>
>>107093686
Oh I have no experience with Nobara. Afaik it isn't based on Atomic Fedora, just regular Fedora, no? That's why Bazzite would be better, since it's harder to break for a regular user.
>>
No. dnf is slow literally unusable. Used to host a tor relay on fedora server, it wasn't bad. But I used it as a desktop for about 2 days, I hated every minute. Artix (OpenRC) is much better. With dwm of course non of that DE shit
>>
>>107093782
Well I suppose it's because Fedora is a happy medium between Debian (older but stable) and Arch (new but edge). It is backed by a large corporation, Red Hat, which gives it a small sense of warranty, like Ubuntu with Canonical. But Canonical has made quite a few fuckups with Ubuntu in the last decade so many people have lost their faith in it.
Red Hat isn't a saint either but for the most part Fedora seems to be kept on the clear.
>>
>>107091083
the only thing atomic fedora does over the workstation edition is giving you seamless updates with rpm-ostreed-automatic, literally only selling point for me as I'm not retarded enough to broke my distro and can always fix boot or configuration problems so the rollback function is pretty useless as doesnt solve bootloader problems (most annoying issue when recovering a broken os) like when changing disks or installing winblows
problem is updating was never fedora's weak point, all issues that makes it worse than debian are still there, mainly being a buggy test-bed, regressions (that ostree rollbacks just delay but you just have to workaround or change workflow as they almost never get fixed), anemic repos, no antifeatures patching, all ibm corposlop unfiltered.
if anything it makes harder to fix these problems, I guess custom ublue images addresses few concerns but the rpm packages are still fedora's
give me debian atomic and then we are talking, using sid packages would be painless
>>
>>107093519
>gnome
Jokes on you, cosmic exists.
>>
>arch monkeys thinking they are high iq by refusing a just works os that has automatic always working invisible updates that literally by definition cannot break and that is more secure than any other current consumer os
how does the xorg.conf look bros?
>>
>>107094019
distrobox was specifically made for ublue images you can literally install any distros packages and even integrate it into your desktop as if natively installed (bazzite does this i think for either steam or something wine or gaming related)
>>
>>107094359
yeah, it's really cool, but it works in all distros, so not really a selling point of fedora atomic
also you need to add the overlay in silverblue because rh is pushing the inferior toolbox, derivatives ship it tho
maybe for normalfags is enough, but it's not really cleaner than traditional distros when you have to install too many overlayed things like qemu (required a silverblue specific workaroud to fix group permission of libvirt) and basic cli stuff that don't make sense in a distrobox (nmap udp broken, probably fixable with privilegied containers but didn't bother)
wireshark probably won't work too, it's just a castrated linux for retards
i get the appeal tho, i guess it's a good thing plebs can use a real os for once, also good if you have fresh hw not supported by debian kernel, but then ubuntu derivates exist
>>
The thing about atomic is it is better to use it with nontech people and normies, because the chances of them messing the system up is minimal.
Fedora packages can be used among all architectures, and their official flatpaks are based on the rpm packages and can be installed on all supported platforms too.
Flathub is x86_64 mostly, and there is not enforcemente to add other architectures.
I will keep using non atomic Fedora for a long time, but it has been obvious atomic is the present/future for five years now.
