I did not know Fedora could run on System 76 devices. Is the process pretty much like for any other computer?
Great video, I’m a total nube. After using Windows for most of my life this is mind blowing. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and knowledge.
Hi. how to make ubuntu with desktop enlightenment? is there an iso ready to use on the starter pendrive?
Yeah...I tried both Ubuntu 24.04 and Fedora 40 on my laptop and snaps has ruined Ubuntu. I've had no issues with Fedora. Updates work, all of my extensions work, etc.
Yeah same for me
Snaps are freaking horrible.
@@otockian Yep
Same for me, recently moved to Fedora from Ubuntu because of that
Can you check that Android Studio works on Fedora including emulators? Emulators is my major pain, since bring CPU to 100%.
this was more of a comparison between the two gnome versions of each distro, not the distro itself. it still was interesting though.
i'm neither an ubuntu nor a fedora user and i don't use gnome at all, so i'm happy to not need to decide between these two options :) but if i had to i would nowadays clearly go with fedora
I was enjoying Fedora 39 since the start of the year, when I tried upgrading to 40, it blew up in my face. My install became unusable. Fortunately I had everything backed up. Now I'm on Zorin, it's ok.
I would pick Fedora because Ubuntu has to many bugs. You should compare them again after the Ubuntu point release when the bugs are squatted, but by then Fedora has changed too.
Heyup Johan! I'd agree with you there matey. As you know, I installed Ubu 24.04 myself recently and I can say that I too had that snap store update bug (fixed it using a fix from 22.04). I have to say that even knowing that Ubuntu LTS's aren't really 'stable' until the first point release, I had expected much better from a corporate backed distro. So yeah, I'm tempted to switch that test machine over to Fedora 40 ...but at the same time I want to see how Ubu shapes up over the weeks to come as well. Stick or Twist? :/ Life's so much calmer on my MX...
@@stationsixtyseven67 It surely is😉
You missed the change in the default Ubuntu install, now the default install is the old minimal install, while extended install is the old default install with all the applications pre-installed.
A comparison based on real hardware in only fair, if you use the same hardware. The OS running on the newest HW will have a disadvantage with respect to HW related bugs. With the modern hypervisors it is more fair to use a VM, unless you want to test gaming performance and in that case you surely need to test on the same HW.
The Ubuntu "Software Updater" does not really update snaps, despite that it promises it, so afterwards I always run "snap refresh" in the terminal to get all snaps updated. That avoided the stupid problem with the App Center, it is faster, it works on my other distros with snaps and it shows the progress of the snap updates.
Good points - I think the real hardware part is important because I saw many reviews only using a VM and missed some big issues which users would run into
Fedora is the better choice.
EndeavourOS is the better choice.
Arch is a good choice too.
Depends on your use TBH
I personally use Fedora, but Ubuntu LTS for sure also has it's place.
I have been using Linux for past 4 years. I thought ubuntu is the best. After one year of usage, I tried fedora. It's fantastic
Grow up kid
Now enable fractional scaling on fedora
I am running both on my desktop on their own ssd's and both work nicely. However I agree with your comments about Fedora being better out of the box.The one problem I have with Ubuntu is the cog wheel on login for switching between X11 and Wayland is missing. The cog wheel is there if I run Ubuntu on my old laptop though but then the app-store will not boot on that one. Definitely a few bugs with Ubuntu's new release.
I'd never comparison a main distro with a based on distro.
on ubuntu many steam(deb) games lagged with NVIDIA driver
I'd go with Ubuntu because technically they do Gnome the best with their accent color choices, sane defaults, extra features and their exclusive triple buffering vsync support that makes it a buttery smooth vsynced experience. Gnome with triple buffering can be a stuttery and low framerate mess, especially on low-end hardware, not so on Ubuntu though. Ubuntu is also easier when installing proprietary drivers, because it gets done automatically during the installation - or - post installation via two or three clicks. Ubuntu has more options enabled within Gnome too, whether that's app indicators or an actual taskbar that can be configured to your desire. I could go on and on - it's the small details that make it superior. In addition, I don't like how Red Hat has spoken about open source and how they actually feel about it in the past.
Major difference between the two is Ubuntu is for newbies while Fedora requires some Linux knowledge and the only common thing between them is the Gnome Desktop.
I'm a Ubuntu fan but I got sick of Snap and use Fedora, Manjaro now
Ubuntu installer has hidden issues. Fedora installer is so good that I could install it even on my fridge and it wouldn't cough!
Yeah I love the Fedora anaconda installer. Makes a lot more sense to me than the ubuntu-style ones. Not to mention that when you encrypt your root or home in manual partitioning it automatically creates /etc/crypttab and the proper /etc/fstab entry as well. So you can have a dual boot with Windows, as well as encrypt whatever you want with manual partitioning, without having to rely on some option that's only there if you do a standard install (like with Linux mint). The only thing missing is for them to add support for pre-encrypted home directories within the GUI of the anaconda installer, instead of having to mount them yourself and create/copy /etc/crypttab
Neither can do fractional scaling properly. Multiple monitors - don't bother. The Fedora KDE 6 version is perfect.
Replace snap with flatpak.
Hi can l playing pubg pc in fedora , thank you .
it is not supported on any linux with steam wine/proton. it is broken as of protondb.
Does Fedora still require a separate /boot partition when I dual boot windows? First time I tried to manually set up partitions it does not allow me to use just a /boot/efi partition
Yes, it's still needed even with a full storage installation, but that's because /boot has to be on Ext4 but Fedora Installer defaults to use Btrfs for its root partition. If you change that to use Ext4 for root you will not need a separate /boot partition, only a /boot/efi one because that one has to be on FAT32
I never knew this, though still a bit skeptical to try installing again
@@FishNChips-kq3hk Well, that's okay. But why it's a problem for you to have a separate /boot partition?
I just hate seeing a really small partition lying around that shouldn't have to be there otherwise. There are some distros that allow me to use btrfs for root partition without /boot so yeah.
Fedora 40 for me.
Fedora have a big problem if your install on new RTX graphic card....install not launch....
Fedora 39 is better than Ubuntu 22.04 on new RTX graphic card. I will not change for Fedora 40 for now, it still early
I tried both and ended up with Linux Mint
Mee too but when it comes to MySQL it's not working properly on mint😢
fedora40. good.
Man it's always snaps ruining Ubuntu's experience...
sudo apt purge snapd
ubuntu looks more polished
"looks"
@@elim.c.8563 I have installed in on my machine as the main OS , I must say this editions is polished
i opted for endeavour os gemini thats just me tho. archlife

where is the problem with install ?
Tried Fedora. Even with default partition install as recommended for dual boot, Fedora nuked Windows in grub and uefi. Could not recover Windows at all. Ubuntu did dual boot with no problem. Going back to Ubuntu with vanilla Gnome, basically same look as Fedora.
I pick Fedora 40 instead of ubuntu , don't like Snap
