Could be the actual GNOME distro or they just forgot to type the name of the distro, which they’re using the GNOME version of. Sometimes that happens to me too, where I just leave out a word.

Nice, I’m using Fedora too. Switched to it from EndeavourOS (arch-based) a while ago.

Gnome is a desktop environment, which you can install into virtually any distro. It’s the default for Fedora, which is a good enough place to try Linux for the first time.

Assuming they used the top link, Fedora?

I hope they’re experiencing less instability than I am then, F39 is the first release in years that’s given me any problem, and it’s doing that a lot.

no major issues so far on fedora 40 beta.

gnome 46 is looking very nice and gnome 47 even more better on gnome os. fedora gave me secure boot.

i gave kde neon a spin and loved it too. i’m hunting for the best touchscreen support.

i dont recommend it as a daily driver, im just testing out the latest between kde plasma and gnome desktop environments to see who handles touchscreens better.

im one of those people that like poking the monitor.

in-fact, I’m already omw to fedora 40.
