Like you don't need to fix shit with Fedora

It's good but it's not left perfect

All my peripherals, NICs, and basic services worked out of the box. I had games up and running in fifteen minutes.

Mine's not technically stock fedora, but still.

I barelt have to fix anything at all in Ubuntu/Fedora type distros unless I want to do different/specific stuff.

Tbh I don't remember the last time I had to fix something on Fedora...

There are some minor choke points (restorecon if installing with a "dirty home" and installing RPMFusion), but yeah, otherwise it does a great job of staying out of your way.

For me:

  • remove fedora flatpak
  • add flathub
  • remove preinstalled bloat (especially annoying on GNOME as these apps all have weird names)
  • add user to libvirt plugdev groups
  • setup automatic updates is weird, packagekit sucks a bit
  • Gnome software sucks, KDE Discover + Flatpak is way easier. But the flatpak backend is probably preinstalled
  • add rpmfusion on KDE needs CLI poorly, but nothing unfixable
  • install libavcodec-freeworld
