Hello all, I’ve been distro hopping a lot lately and have a long term goal of settling on one distro for the family laptops.

Currently it’s a smattering of linux distro’s and some M$ across all the systems in the house.

In short the fam has had a pretty negative reaction to Gnome for all the usual reasons, so there is a kubuntu instance, Nobara, but the KDE version, Manjaro etc… I kind of want to give Fedora a stint on my laptop and noticed the Fedora spins project and was wondering if anyone has played around with it at all?

I spun up the KDE version in a VM alongside the default Fedora and noticed it’s running a newer kernel than the default, which is interesting…

Is it an equal partner in update cycles?

    Be careful with these containerized distros. I would read bit more before jumping into something not standard as of now. In particular, making changes to the root image by installing packages works a lot differently than good old Linux distros.

    Otherwise Fedora’s KDE spin is quite good, too. They include a lot of extraneous packages, though.
