I have used Arch Linux for 10+ years, then shortly macOS and Windows, and to Fedora as of yesterday as well. Red Hat is employing and paying for most of the desktop and server userspace developers (GNOME, systemd, pipewire, podman, ostree), I might as well use their official distro. It's the closest thing to bleeding edge and forward looking distribution that dictates the pace for everybody else to follow. I like that. I liked ubuntu when it first released, but modern day Canonical is a shell of its former self. Snap is their sad attempt at EEE from Microsoft's playbook. And I have never liked Debian, even when it's been running on my servers since forever.

Yeah, that's pretty much my methodology for why I went Fedora too. Although I didn't know Red Hat was that deep into upstream work (awesome!), but it makes total sense. > I liked ubuntu when it first released, but modern day Canonical is a shell of its former self.

I feel like every few years I mentally shout "YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!" to Canonical, haha.
