I’ve used Linux lite and Fedora(Gnome edition) so far, and trying to hop Distro(plus, I lost my actual boot drive. Not to worry, I know I’ve left it in my friend’s house, so the data is safe. Plus, no important data were on it in the first place).
Considering the recent incidents with the Red Hat Enterprises, I’m not sure if I should go with any of their distributions. Which would be a great OS for me, you guys think? @thelinuxEXP @linux@lemmy.ml @Linux@linuxrocks.online @linuxmagazine @linux_gaming

Really depends on what you’re looking for. If you’re looking for simple “works out the box” distros, check out Pop_OS, Zorin OS, or other Debian based stuff. If you’re a power user, maybe Arch Linux (or arch linux based stuff like Elementary OS) could fit the bill. There’s also Nix OS.

Using Red Hat based stuff doesn’t mean you’re supporting them though. Fedora’s still a good distro and I wouldn’t move if I’m already comfortable in it imo.
@simple I think I’ll try a bit on the Arch side to have an idea on how the power users actually use it. Plus, yeah, I’m comfortable with Fedora, but I also want to try out some other stuff before sticking to one distro. If you check one of my previous posts, there’s some problems I had, so I couldn’t. Then the whole Red Hat issue came up and so on.
I’m a big Ubuntu fan and it’s derivatives. PopOS is pretty snazzy, but it doesn’t have grub which can be a little weird.
Currently I’m running KDE Neon. I used to be a hard core gnome guy, but I’ve been seduced by all the performance gains KDE has. I just customized it to look like gnome (it’s infinitely customizable).
But if you want to stick to RPM land, check out OpenSUSE.
The other suggestion I’d have would be Manjaro which is arch based.

Okay, to add some perception to it, I want to use some new OS which is a bit different from the above two distros. That includes some Arch based and OpenSuse, but I would like to try other stuff as well. Ubuntu is something that I would avoid for the time being, but yeah, that’s my situation right now on deciding a new distro.

EndeavourOS is by far my fav. OpenSUSE is nice for people who don’t like terminals too.
