The lesson is to use a Community distro, not a Corporate distro.
Okay, but you donāt see these kinds of complaints with Fedora or SUSE. While I donāt necessarily disagree with your core point (community is better), this doesnāt seem like an issue with corporations so much as an issue strictly with Canonical.
Been running KDE on fedora for the last 6 years after giving up on everything Ubuntu based back then. Havenāt thought to look elsewhere since as its been just fine
I went through something similar 2 years ago. I was sold in PopOS, mainly because Debian based distros were easier to find help for. Almost 2 years ago I started using Fedora on my PC while still having PopOS on my laptop. Within 3 weeks I was setting my laptop up with Fedora as well, and Iāve never looked back (other than the regular distro-hopping bursts, lol).
It has been very good & stable over the last few years. I switched because kbuntus ancient kernel caused me issues so I needed something more current, and its worked ever since so I never looked elsewhere. Running Linux isnāt a hobby for me, these are my work systems, so I donāt hop without a push.
Edit: Iāve just rolled out fedora 40 and plasma 6 is running great
Youāre being purposefully obtuse. Corporate distro means āby and for companiesā which rolling releases are not
Okay? OpenSUSE Leap is a point release by and for companies. While Fedora isnāt necessarily a server distro, it IS a point release designed with enterprise use in mind.
If we look at both of their strictly enterprise counterparts, Iāve never heard of any complaints about SUSE and any complaints with RHEL Iāve heard are with source availability. Neither of them have the mega amounts of bad publicity of Canonical.
