I'm an AI developer and can't spend much time experimenting linux features specifically fedora, your videos have been a great help for me to maintain my os and learn about essential features on linux. Keep up the good work and thanks

I have the same mindset with updates on the system in Fedora. Nice review Stephen!

Hello Stephen! Very timely video I just finished installing Fedora 36 KDE after using 36 beta to determine all my hardware worked. Running this on an Asus G733QS laptop and using Asusctl have keyboard back-lighting and thermal control working beautifully. The only thing I see is the arbt-applet coughs occasionally. I do notice that Grub-customizer does not show anything other than the Windows and UEFI entries (I prefer to have Windows as the first entry listed) not a show stopper but otherwise 36 is very smooth. Thank for your insights and commentary!

Thank you. I got the Mate spin so most of this is not exacty relevant to me.
I have wrestled with multi-media in the past. This time I installed the good old Totem, which is in the default repo, and that took care of most of my g-streamers and codecs and things. Installing VLC is a bit of a wrestle but if you just use Totem it's pretty simple. Beyond that, I'm sorry to say that's a lot of detail about gnome things in gnome that add gnome boxes and gnome widgets and gnome dark-mode and about a hundred other things that I don't use.
I will say about #36, it seems to be a lot more polished and error free, inside a VirtualBox, than #35 was. For one, I don't think I had to get kernel-headers and gcc and build-essential and everything, because the VirtualBox guest additions are in there by default, and they work, not just to give full screen resolution but to allow cut n paste and dragon-drop and all the important things too. Pipewire works, even in a virtual machine, which was a bit touch and go with the first version.
I'm not about to abandon my love Linux-Mint + Mate and shift to Fedora, as a HOST, but it is much closer to a useable system out of the box than the previous one was.
Previous experience and preconceptions? Well, I had a copy of Redhat in a VMware box on NT4 in '97, and I tried (and failed) to compile a custom kernel for RH on bare metal in about '99 or '00... I have never used Fedora / RHEL as my daily, but I have a passing acquaintence with it that goes back 25 years... it wasn't the first Linux I ever saw or used, but it was the first one I ever installed.
