What holds it up from being considered a beginner-friendly distro, like Ubuntu or Linux Mint?
>>107703818The people making it don't give a flying fuck about making a free desktop distro.
>>107703818No codecs. Idk about other editions but Fedora KDE at least lets you ENABLE the NVIDIA driver repo in the welcome screen, but it still doesn't have a similar option for codecs.
>>107703818>Fedora They got the corpo rot and no one likes to be a beta tester. Thats why everyone is on Arch, we goated with steam.
>>107703818Not "just working" out of the box. Basically codecs and such as other anons said.Also being the first distro to announce "using AI" for its code in the future isn't well seen in many people's eyes.Fedora has become the bastard child of linux, for anyone that know what they're doing there's only 2 options: Debian and Arch. For anyone being a noob there's serious forks of those too. But for fedora there's only meme forks.
I always had more issues trying to get shit to work on Fedora. Since the late 2000s.Everytime there's something that I can get to work on different distros that becomes just a pain in the ass in Fedora. Sometimes it's hardware, sometimes it's some software, but there is always something. It's like Fedora's trying to play difficult. Oh look at me your tweaks won't work on me, you have to do something else, have fun figuring it out you silly boy teehee.
>>107704081>kek look at red hat over there with their meme distro>hahaha pathetic fools>anyways, time to embed the most egregious parts of their code base into ours
>>107703818Fedora is really popular. It was one of my first distros to daily drive. It's just hard to recommend to beginners, because of the all FOSS codecs, just like openSUSE. Beginners don't want to swap codecs, get proprietary drivers etc.
>>107703818Because it just works. Linux community prefers a pile of shit as an OS.
>look up fedora guy to see what he's up to>complaining about being fat>people on his timeline telling him he's lazy and to lose more weight
>>107704187For people like that I just recommend one of the universalblue spins.
Install Debian.
>>107704234Yes. Install Debian. Here, use their package repository.
>>107703963this GOTTA be bait
>>107703818its bloated
