I got Fedora 39 on my dev Laptop, but I'm so happy with it I'm considering switching my Windows 10 Game PC to Fedora. If only the gaming industry would make native Linux games :(

[esaedvik]

I'm currently running Nobara (based on Fedora 39+KDE Plasma) and it's absurd how spiffy it is on a moderately old i5-8600T 6-core CPU. I do have plenty of RAM and a fast M.2 NVMe SSD though, but still. It's a joy to use. Can't wait to put this or some other Linux on my main PC.

Currently upgrading from fedora 38 i3 spin. crossing fingers.

[hammerheadcorvette]

Bloat is misguided here. The emergence of the atomic spins means there will be more and more Atomic distros. You didn't even mention, uBlue, Bluefin, Bazzite in the video and some other Vendor specific runs for Asus, Lenovo, Framework laptops.

[awaissajid]

please tell me should i switch from windows to fedora 40. i am a student and only mostly use ms office however i do want to learn coding so if you can kindly tell me should i switch or stay

[pitape]

Thanks for the timely video! I still prefer a modified Gnome like Ubuntu but a big fan of Silerverblue/Bazzite with Plasma

[MinaSchloch]

Atomic Desktops are not unchangeable...

The core OS is managed, can be changed and resetted, or changed during the image building process through projects like uBlue.

How does Fedora 40 compare with Zorin 17.1 and Debian 12?

[imacmill]

Any reason I should abandon Mint and move to this?

[JohnCrawford]

All distros have gotten bloated, even the core and small OSes. The earliest GUIs tried to work on 500 Kb, later, 50Mb, up to 500Mb. Now, DSL, that tries to be the smallest distro possible, if finding it hard to have a fully capable desktop experience any lower than 700 Mb. Most of it is due to growing demands in graphics, but most things multimedia, from sound to streaming and broadcasting keep demanding more each upgrade. So it's not completely the fault of OS development because they're trying to keep up pace with both the new hardware and software coming out. Fortunately, it's not near the massive leaps, or at least processors have leveled out when it comes to Ghz speeds, and things have moved towards other optimizations. But memory and RAM requirements keep on growing. The skeleton structures? They probably could render on old 8-bit machines, but not to the quality of graphical details demanded today. So the bloat comes from the layers of detail and complexity we demand of modern computing.

Fedora 40 with KDE 6 is the sweet spot for me i stop ditro hopping, i quit Rolling Release distro /testing them and now I just use fedora. I'm not to keen on this silverblue stuff man as I like to customize my terminal and my desktop like wallpaper and theme so if this silverblue become the default system it will ruin the fun of desktop as I like to make my desktop feel like me .. not some ISO standard desktop... sorry if they change it to silverblue as the main distro iso I will leave fedora as well and have to find another linux again :(

[michealrosen]

I loved fedora 38 and 39 im sure 40 will be great also, i was surprised you use ubuntu, i understand people choosing lts for stable long term support, but snaps are so slow and clunky, the new 24.04 is apparently going further into just snaps 🤮

[deim]

40GB SSD required?! What kind of bloat it is?

[diuran]

the worst desktop on Linux world. top left and move to bottom middle to run app ehh tragedy. I don't care about shortcut on keyboard. everything is zooming and out zooming for the eyes is not good at all. better they make default desktop too looks like any old or new windows from Microsoft or cinnamon or anything, that give you easy access to apps without configuring anything.
