So we can clearly see the most popular distros and the reasons why people use them, please follow this format:
- Write the name of the Linux distro as a first-level comment.
- Reply to that comment with each reason you like the distro as a separate answer.
For example:
- Distro (first-level comment)
- Reason (one answer)
- Other reason (a different answer)
Please avoid duplicating options. This will help us better understand the most popular distros and the reasons why people use them.
Fedora
Stable
Only FOSS software and repositories unless otherwise enabled
Uses the latest tech in linux e.g wayland and pipewire.
Cutting edge application releases so I get the newest toys after they’ve been decently tested
Applies patches for better programs work under Wayland (SDDM with git patches before long awaited 0.20.0 release).
