Where are you planning to distro hop to? I find Fedora has a special balance between bleeding edge and stable that no other distribution I tried achieves.

- tokai 3y agoThats a really good question. Guess I'll check out opensuse tumbleweed.
- bravetraveler 3y agoThat's what I was going to suggest; the SUSE people do good work. If Fedora becomes something I want to leave... that's where I'm going. I don't really need or want this pressure on Fedora -- 'the premiere desktop... blah, barf'. This is how we got Canonical and their brazen licensing I'm happy enough with it basically being RHEL-next. Package the misc things (GNOME, KDE, Sway, etc) with the appropriate SELinux policies and bam, a decent desktop OS.
- justinclift 3y agoOne minor quality-of-life suggestion that I found with SUSE, is after you install things make a soft link from their "zypper" package manager utility to "zyp". That way, you can just type "zyp ..." for stuff which is pretty easy, whereas "zypper" I always found to be more of a pain (for typing). "zypper" seems to attract typos, for me anyway. ;) You could do the same thing with an alias too I guess... :)
- red-iron-pine 3y agoSame boat. Been looking at Arch, or back to the Greater Debian Hegemony, probably Pop_OS. I have a System76 laptop I use mostly for travel / edge cases and Pop_OS is decent enough that I'd consider it on the desktop.
