But anyway, it's here now. Enjoy!

Originally posted by ptrwis View PostUnless I missed something, this one isn't particularly exciting. There are no major changes like in recent Fedora releases like the switch to Wayland, btrfs, dbus-broker or PipeWire. I thought maybe iwd would land, but no, just a maintenance release.

Good question. I don't require much from a dev machine, but these days I find myself installing either some Ubuntu variant (because the rest of the team doesn't know any better and they all went Ubuntu, despite it being a poor choice for developers, with its stale packages) or OpenSUSE (because I love KDE).
Back when I used to install Fedora, it was because server were running RedHat and Fedora or CentOS would keep up close to that. That "pressure" is gone, I haven't seen a RedHat server in production in a while.

Originally posted by bug77 View Post15 years ago, I couldn't wait to install the latest Fedora on a development machine. But my enthusiasm faded away, I think the last time I installed it was 10 years ago. Is that just me or has Fedora lost its mojo? What's its appeal these days?
It's one of the top desktop distros out there.
My rankings:
1) Fedora
2) Elementary
3) ?

Glad you are trying Kinoite, it is high on my watchlist of distributions. Personally, I believe concepts like Kinoite's rpm-ostree and flatpaks are the future. While I trust Fedora's rpms and Arch's main repos, Linux is becoming too popular not to have sandboxing at its core. Third-party software is becoming very common on average Linux users' system, I really want it siloed away with flatpaks. Having the main OS versioned and controlled with rpm-ostree (especially if BTRFS can be leveraged in the process) is an added perk for stability. Exciting times ahead.
