An interesting trend graph of the most diffused distros and their adoption by users over time.

    Very interesting, thanks for sharing. I didnt realise that Arch adoption was so high. I (don’t) use arch, BTW. Although now I feel like I want to give it a spin to see what all the fuss is about!

    Or maybe I’ll stay fat, dumb, and happy with Fedora and Nobara on my desktop and laptop.

    Not that it would change anything for me personally, but I really think Pop! OS is a poor naming choice. Who puts an exclamation mark in their name? Aside from Yahoo! I suppose.

      Stick with Fedora and Nobara, they are good distros. I use Arch myself, because I like that bleeding edge, bro - but if those other distros are working for you, there’s pretty much no reason for the average person to switch.

        Nobara is sooo hyped. It is not a secure Distro. They literally

        • do tons of weird stuff with Apparmor and literally disable SELinux “because its easier to work with” (fedora variants are the only Distros using it, which is such a security advantage!)
        • add tons of packages
        • modify GNOME to make it very strange
        • delay an update for over a month

        I recommend to use bazzite.gg if you want Gaming. They do all the Nobara fixes but

        • immutable
        • daily updates
        • SELinux intact
        • various spins for every hardware, including custom Kernels and tweaks
