Good luck to them. I’ve been very much enjoying Fedora since Windows 11 came out.
Fedora, what is that?!
A Linux distribution, much like Ubuntu and Arch
It is one of the more user friendly distros and (somewhat unlike other user friendly distros like Linux Mint) is pretty quick at updating packages (including the kernel).
I like Ubuntu the most from a GUI perspective. Sometimes I feel the urge to uninstall Windows 11 entirely and replace it with the latest version of Ubuntu or even dual-boot them side-by-side, but then I realize that I'm way more used to Windows than Ubuntu. Also, there are a lot of apps and games I won't be able to use on Ubuntu.
I have a Bachelor's in Computer Science, so I'm familiar with Ubuntu, but as I told you before: I would choose Windows over Linux in the meantime.
Yeah, I removed Windows on my laptop a couple years back, and I still run into issues running some video games (darn you Nvidia!). However, usability has been increasing recently, and because I like the UI of my distro I really look forward to the day I can do everything I would want to on Linux.
I don't think any operating system would replace another any time soon.
A version of linux (distro). I'm running Fedora and it's fantastic
Yeah, I just learned. Thanks for answering my question.
It’s a distribution of Linux. Everything I was running on windows works pretty much the same minus the annoying shit that Microsoft brings to their OS
Ah, I see. I'm going to read more about it. Thanks for the explanation.
