  • Since I run both Docker and Plex Media Server, atomic spins aren’t really a good option for me. The way they interact with certain system files is pretty much incompatible with an immutable distro. The number of workarounds that I would have to employ in order to get it all to work would be a gigantic headache and would pretty much undo any advantage I would gain.

    Also, I really don’t like cosmic desktop. I used to use PopOS, and I was very excited for it, but when they switched to it, it just really wasn’t ready, and I still don’t think it’s ready yet. Plus it offers no framework for extensions or plug-ins yet. I far prefer GNOME, and GNOME 51 got some massive performance improvements. Plus, it looks almost exactly like macOS, which I really like.


  • New? Exciting? That’s not the fedora experience. Fedora is boring and stable. And that’s the whole point of it. It’s extremely well designed and extremely well-made and it just works. It’s not trying to impress anyone with some flashy new feature that might make the system unstable or unreliable in anyway, and it’s not trying to make some flashy changes to the interface that people have to constantly adjust to.

    Nope. Stable, reliable, and boring that’s what I love about it. Lol.

    I’ve got it installed on my 2011 iMac that use as a plex server. Runs great.

    Gnome 51 certainly came with some performance improvements that were very noticeable on my very very old server, but others might not have noticed on a more modern machine.
