From Ubuntu to Fedora or what distro?
I used Fedora a few years ago. Moved to the Mac. Moved to Ubuntu. Back to Mac. Back to Ubuntu. I might move back to Fedora. Any recommendations? After years of distro hopping, I settled with Elementary: https://elementary.io/ this looks very interesting and I like the screenshots but I wonder this is more for general use and not towards development use. Was on Fedora before. Debian is ok and better than Ubuntu IMHO. What was your main reason from moving from Fedora to Debian. Is it the package manager or any other reason? At that time, Debian Tesing was more stable than a standart Fedora. What's been your reasoning for switching every time? Pick a distro, stick with it, and learn to customize it to your liking. simplicity. used for web browsing, terminal and listen to music. light. I tried installing Debian. Half an hour later the install crashed :) That's odd. No insight as to what caused it? Generally shouldn't be much of a difference you'd notice for those tasks other than the desktop environment. the install was taking about 30 min. It said something like 'software install' error. Continue. Error loop. On the other hand I tried Fedora and it installed in 5 min. no errors :) yeah you are right not much difference. Ubuntu Unity and in Fedora Gnome 3 look almost the same to me. Although I tried Gnome3 on Ubuntu before too. I moved from Ubuntu to Fedora a couple of weeks ago (on a Macbook pro) and it's has been awesome so far. I am trying Fedora on a VM. It looks similar to Ubuntu. Trying to get use to the package manager. What are a few things you like about Fedora after moving from Ubuntu. I think they were mainly related to my machine. On Ubuntu my laptop was getting super hot all the time, even with extra tools and extra drivers installed. Also I was using Ubuntu with Gnome, and it wasn't so fluid. With Fedora, Gnome just works perfectly, the laptop doesn't get hot and the battery just lasts longer.
