I've been using Fedora for something like 8 years, with no functionality loss in that time during updates.

I'm happy with Manjaro but if I were choosing a new distro to move to, it would be Fedora. ------- Original Message ------- On Monday, May 2nd, 2022 at 4:36 AM, Evan Leibovitch via talk <talk@gtalug.org><mailto:talk@gtalug.org> wrote: Thanks. Ugh. Your timing is perfect, because I'm just about to do a fresh install and this would be the time to decide on something else. I'm looking for an alternative that will offer support for a KDE version as well as Steam and my fairly-new AMD graphics card (RX 6500 XT). I'd also prefer to live snap-free. Mint and Pop don't support KDE, SuSE has problems with Steam and I'm exhausted enough that I don't want one more learning curve wrt the Arch way of doing things. Right now my best choices appear to be MX, KDE Neon (if I install the 32-bit libraries for Steam) and (if I want to go back to an RPM-based system for the first time since Mandriva ceased,) Fedora KDE. Any suggestions, either from these choices or something else? Thanks again.

This version was not ready for release and it's is probably going to be a costly endeavour to maintain this collection of mixed versioned software and mixed display server and mixed designs for a full five years. It's a platform I would recommend avoiding. -- --- Post to this mailing list talk@gtalug.org<mailto:talk@gtalug.org> Unsubscribe from this mailing list https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk --- Post to this mailing list talk@gtalug.org<mailto:talk@gtalug.org> Unsubscribe from this mailing list https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk -- David Collier-Brown, | Always do right.
