Just curious, slightly off topic -- for desktop what do you find to be valuable to use Fedora over say CentOS?
I know CentOS is traditionally for servers, but I've played with installing CentOS7 on a laptop for fun and side project work and it's worked out pretty well for me -- but it's also not my full time machine so I don't know if I'm just missing something.
- UK-Al05 8y agoNormally the software in the repos with centos is a lot older. So you can't use the latest Dev tools for example without compiling and installing yourself.
- mindcrime 8y agoCentOS probably actually works fine on desktop, I use Fedora out of habit as much as anything. If there's a technical reason, it's mostly just about having the "latest and greatest" in terms of drivers, desktop environments, dev tools, etc.
