Hi everyone, i want to move from Windows to Fedora. I’m a noobie of linux, i want a OS that don’t spy me but with softwares for daily base use and for delevop apllication. Someone can advise me if is the right choice or give another option? Sorry for my english :')
Fedora is not Debian based, but an upstream or ‘sidestream’ distribution of CentOS, based on the RPM package manager.
I’d say basically any distribution is a good starting point. Eventually after distrohopping you’ll settle on one or two distributions which work for you.
I have Debian on my servers, Arch on my desktop (for games) and Fedora on my laptop.
I know perfectly Fedora is not Debian… xD and I use Ubuntu or CentOS Stream 8/9 (I like more rolling releases distros) for servers and only Arch based for my personal computers or even on my Raspberry Pi.
I was saying, if you want something stable, Debian based sounds easy as Fedora has some security policy that can make it hard to do certain stuff. If you want a nice gaming desktop, Manjaro makes it easy to install all you need or even install custom kernels with Steam support.
Okay, but
makes it sound like Fedora is one of the Debian based distributions, which is why I wanted to make that clear for others.
Okay, sorry, I talk like everyone knows this.
