So I have a new installation of fedora, which I reinstalled because gdm would freeze and prevent me from logging in and using my computer. I then noticed the same problem on the new installation. I noticed that using an older kernel worked, but system upgrades will break gdm again. I don’t want to have to never update my system. New distro? Suggestions to fix this? I ideally want an relatively bleeding edge distro.

    I ran Arch for 3+ years, and finally got tired of fixing it. Fedora gave me nothing but troubles, but is working perfectly fine as a friend’s first distro. Now I’m on MX + nix, and I doubt I’ll move any time soon.

        It’s more like I found a young mistress and it fixed my marriage (not a good metaphor but I’m going with). Running a stable distro is a completely different experience today than it was 5 years ago, and it’s all thanks to tools like nix and flatpak.
