Disclaimer: I don't use Fedora, but have friends who do. So I tried to include sources, below. 😅
How would I install NVIDIA drivers?

_Does Wayland work with NVIDIA?*
(I don't know)
A lot of distros are moving to Wayland. How would I ensure I stay on an Xorg session?
GNOME now defaults to Wayland. Instructions to use xOrg instead: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/configuring-xorg-as-default-gnome-session/
I expect other desktop environments will similarly have mechanisms switch, at least during a transition period.
I enjoy modding Bethesda games. Does Mod Organizer work fully on Linux?
Your mileage may vary, but it looks likely: https://github.com/rockerbacon/modorganizer2-linux-installer
I've had difficulties running my steam games through proton on my laptop. Does proton work with Fedora?
I suspect it will. Steam has been pouring money into making it's catalog Linux ready, https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/gaming/proton/
With said difficulties with proton, would installing Steam as a flatpak work or will it cause issues?
In principle it ought to, but there appears to be an issue with it currently. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/gaming/proton/
Can you really not play any games with anti-cheat?
Anti cheat software generally works by looking for irregularities that detect if there's any program besides Windows that's intercepting system calls. It is unfortunately by exactly this mechanism that allows Proton to work (as Windows isn't present).
Nah. The 24 hour window is so all the rich, connected people can apply for some grandfathered exemption clause that's not available to the rest of us.
Private golden adventures available. Inquire within.
As a rule of thumb, I expect that Asus as a business only cares about adbock from two angles:
- A feature to slap on the box for advertising.
- A B2B feature for helping business management make workers more productive.
To the first, there's little incentive to ever update the lists after you've bought the device, so it's quickly outdated. To the second, it's like to be far more optimized for Amazon or Newegg, then for Reddit. Between the two, I don't generally expect them to hold a candle to pi-hole and similar software.
True. But also not just 2:04. I'd say ~¼ of them could be described in fetish terms.
Let's start simple: You should consider hoping from Linux Mint to LMDE if you haven't already.
As a user, you have no obligation to participate in the politics between the Ubuntu and the Mint Development team, but if you've followed the controversy and agree that Ubuntu is being a bully, this would be a small yet material way to show support.
what am I missing?
Every Linux distribution has a purpose - a reason its author thought it was worth the effort of creating it. Some are grand, others are silly, etc. When you explore distros, you're telling the community which ideas resonate with you. Popular ideas will replicate, unpopular ideas will be abandoned.
Also, switching distributions makes it harder for business to 'capture' the Linux demographic. The mere act of switching occasionally means that tools to import/export/manage your data stay relevant. This literally fights enshitification.
Finally, and this is a matter of personal taste, but I like trying different versions of Linux for the same reason I try different flavors of ice cream: It's fun; and even if now and then I get a bad flavor, I feel enriched by the experience.
(Edit: it's to its)
Yes, at the beginning of the pandemic it was discovered that Plex Inc had been tracking, reporting home, and selling user watching habits to advertisers. Basically the exact thing many Plex users were trying to get away from.
This inspired many developers (who were otherwise stuck at home due to said pandemic) to fork Emby and thus Jellyfin was born.
Fair point. My apologies to all the tech hip grannies of the world.
There are people who consider themselves not tech savvy, and don't plan to learn. Is there a good term you'd recommend as slang for these people?
Oh! What a spicy comment!
It's funny - some of my first Linux experiences was to try out compiz-fusion back when it was new about 20 years ago. Wobbly windows is the key feature that I fell in love with Linux over. Or rather a compositor that provided great control over the desktop experience that made it fun, and people like you were angry back then that nobody needs eye candy. Nowadays, composite graphics are standard in Windows, Mac, Gnome and KDE.
I'm glad that the community overall has grown up, and that most distros focus on being usable by every user, not just power users
Yes they do. I will not have you gatekeeping Linux users (even for humor sake), just because we insist on having options.
I want my 'the year of the Linux desktop' damnit, and that won't happen if granny is stuck in Windows because nobody makes a GUI update button.
The only thing I find shocking is that it isn't a subscription service with a one-time $60 shipping and handling fee.
