    Why in the world is Fedora peak enlightenment. Any well run, simple, community run distro is peak enlightenment.

      I guess it’s realizing you just want a stable “it just works” type of mainstream distro with a large community and support

      It’s Ubuntu for people who think Ubuntu is for noobs. A little bit further ahead, you find Ubuntu again.

        Yeah because fedora is made by a for-profit company that’s helping Microsoft EEE Linux, has sold user data to Amazon, shows ads in the terminal, collects contact info from Azure so the marketing team can upsell you, and hijacks established commands to trick you into using their package manager which slows down boot times with every package installed, oh wait…

          Fedora is indeed mostly backed by a for-profit company, always was. Not sure about the rest of the rant, I’m gonna assume you are right.

            Fedora is indeed mostly backed by a for-profit company, always was.

            Pretty much every successful FOSS project is funded by for-profits, but that doesn’t change the fact non-profit companies have completely different goals and obligations.

            Not sure about the rest of the rant

            That explains why you think people don’t use Ubuntu because it’s for noobs. They’re undoubtedly the scummiest distro since Novell-SUSE.

                Where did you get my claims about Ubuntu from?

                You joined a comment chain about Fedora and Ubuntu, so…

                I didn’t write a word about Canonical bro.

                Thought you’re the other dude

            I really won’t… The closest I’ll ever get to installing it is Mint, there’s absolutely no need to waste time decrapifying it myself. Maybe you’ll get there as well pal.

      It’s a meme, you read into it too much.

      If we’re about to be 100% factual and objective, ANY distro that you feel comfortable with, and one that stops you from distrohopping, is peak enlightenment.

      That wouldn’t make a good meme though.
