Tracking Bugs & Making Fedora Workstation More Stable

[Michael_S]

I've been using Linux since 1994 (Slackware), and Fedora since it was called RedHat 5. After Gnome 3 I switched to KDE. I have never, in all that time, had anywhere nearly as unstable an experience (and XFree86 to X.org wasn't good) than I've had with Plasma 5 and Fedora 23. I didn't even really know what ABRT was before, and now I've got a whole list of crash reports. The latest updates are helping again, but damn.

My Fedora experience with KDE and plasma has been poor since I switched to Fedora 21 when that came out. I'm using XFCE on Fedora 23 now.

No offense to the fine folks at Fedora and the GNOME Foundation, but I just don't like the GNOME 3 interface. It's a shame, because when I tried it the stability was excellent and the UI was very pretty.
