What a fucking difference. Debian is nice, but apt is shit, dnf is so much better.

Besides the name, why aren't you using Fedora /g/?

The only reason you should be using linux distros is for personal development or contributing to their respective projects.

Agreed. Fedora it's my favourite distro ever since installing it on my laptop.

>>51744922
Packages are always at least one release behind and that's unlikely to change any time soon. I had thought it would finally start to control its own fate as Ubuntu moves away from Gnome, but they have once again adopted Gnome Software as their app store meaning that they'll still be selecting the versions for a bunch of packages that Ubuntu Gnome won't be able to do anything about.

Honestly I've been thinking about switching away from it but Steam and the easy availability of RadeonSI OpenGL 4 support via a PPA has kept me on it.

I've thought about Arch given the comparisons I hear made with it and my nostalgia for Slackware but I'm not sure I really care to run it as it sounds fairly unstable.

As long as you don't use the testing repo, limit your usage of the AUR to things that your operating system doesn't depend on, and check Arch News before big updates, you should be fairly fine. It's not nearly as unstable as some people make it out to be.

This. I used to distrohop every few months. One install of arch and I've had it for years.

In three years, I've had the system break once, and all it took was running nvidia-xconfig and it was back to normal.

I would actually recommend fedora to normies if it weren't for the fact that you need to install rpmfusion and a fuckton of codec packages to have a usable desktop system. other than that issue, the distro works like a dream

dnf is slightly better than apt when it comes to dependency resolution / not fucking you over and telling you it's okay to remove packages when it isn't and then everything breaks and you hang yourself.

But everything is better at that than apt, so it's no big deal. dnf is slow as shit. More correctly, Fedora's repos are slow as shit to download, at least for me. I use the closest ones, apparently, but it still takes the fat end of a minute to download them (sometimes longer, actually) and it does so every time you run pretty much any command. It's total horse shit.

In terms of speed pacman is the best for me, it's just a shame about its LEL HAKKER xD command syntax.

tl;dr dnf is shit Fedora is shit you a shit

It's not. I don't know why anyone would ever use CentOS outside of server use. Quite a lot of people have RedHat licenses from work though.
