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.

    Sure, why not?

    Before you get all semantic, despite being on “flatpak” github page, the problem only affected Fedora.

    Should I also link to the time where rpm-ostree could not update or install anything? Which of those times should I link?

      Ok. Bug was fixed. Bugs happen. I guess a regular user will get the fix eventually.

        Also, that didn’t break the system. Sure, a new app wouldn’t be possible to install but the system worked overall and users were able to perform their tasks;)

          Ohhh, the narrative is changing, previously you were denying any bad things. Progress, perhaps?

          Keep in mind it was impossible to install the distribution when rpm-ostree broke and it would be useless when flatpak broke. Of course, you could check the forums and see workarounds but that’s not very different from downloading an older ISO in any distribution.

          Alas good luck being a normal user when you decide to install something because… well, it’s your computer. And then it doesn’t work. Repeat this for multiple days several times a year because Fedora devs have no concept of rolling back updates and you got yourself a problem.
