I’m starting to dislike Fedora. It seemed wonderful when I moved to Linux a few months ago. Well, it has been. I love it, and love Linux. But it seems like fedora is making a bunch of bad changes. IE. removing hardware encoding, opt out telemetry… Oh, and the whole Redhat ordeal. Frankly, I want to move distros. I need something with a newer kernel, and more cutting edge software in general. So Debian is out. Which leaves… arch. It seems cool, and I am willing to spend a lot of time troubleshooting. But I hear that arch is very hard, and I’m still pretty new to, albeit committed, to Linux. I’ve also heard good things about Nobara, but idk how I feel about just moving downstream from the RH issue.

I don’t feel like using a fork of another distro. I want to learn how to install whatever packages myself.

    If you want to try Arch try EndeavorOS. Basically Arch with a handful of quality of life enhancements and a gui installer out of the box. Honestly though, if you read the wiki and know basic troubleshooting, Arch is really no more or less difficult then Fedora.
