A few busted upgrades and the heavy-handed push of a software packaging solution has ruined Ubuntu for me.

    As much as I dislike Ubuntu, I wouldn’t use Fedora, sponsored by Red Hat, a US company, either. LMDE is the way.

        Amongst others, yes. But not every distro is red hat’s testing ground, and not every distro operates under US jurisdiction. I’m sure you do actually know the difference.

      Is not Fedora independent of red hat?

      Except for the upstream (or downstream since they are bleeding edge) development, I always assume they are isolated from red hat influence.

        Iirc, a crapton of RH ppl work on Fedora, since it’s their “sandbox for RHEL” distro.

        And while I fuckin’ HATE what IBM/RH BS tries to pull in some areas, it doesn’t prevent me from running Fedora derivatives daily.

          Fedora is community lead for the most part. (Community leaders and all)
