I tried it recently and had so many issues with it like apps not indexing in the “open with” file menu, and flatpak apps not interfacing with any system functionality.

    I’ve always been very confused why fedora isn’t the go to distro…I mean I do understand why Ubuntu is so popular to newcomers but I’ve never understood why fedora always goes unmentioned

    It’s by far been my easiest out of the box experience for regular desktop use

      At least for a long time, you had to set up RPMFusion to be able to play media, and having the additional repos tended to break on major upgrades for a bit after release

      So, for beginners, it was a bit painful to suggest

    • Yes, thank you! Ubuntu, in my opinion, is not a beginner friendly experience. It also tends to break easily, at least in my opinion. I’ve had ongoing problems with Ubuntu, as soon as I installed Fedora all the problems went away.
