    In their gnome version, during the setup process (first boot, not install), they would prompt for third-party repo and codec (Enabled by default, IIRC).

    I think you might have unchecked that? or KDE not offering such experience?


    EDIT: NVM, I just checked, and I have never installed the codecs… LOL.

    Fedora is notorious for avoiding shipping proprietary software with their distro even at the cost of new users.

    I think this might stems from the fact that fedora used to be a distro aimed for advanced users. It is slowly getting better at being new user friendly.

        Yeah, I was wondering why I have desync issues couple days ago watching videos with my wife.

        Modern YouTube videos are generally fine, but many other site has poor support for popular codecs.
