How do you explain to your co-workers that you use Libre Office Writer and other Linux apps? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

It is the superior choice, doesn't have ads, doesn't try to sell you shit, it never updates without your permission, it doesn't spy on you, it doesn't sell your data, it is the superior choice, and penguins be cute.

Laughs in Debian

Curious about the relationship between Red Hat and Fedora in c/linux@lemmy.ml

That's so nice to hear! Thank you so much for sharing. I'll definitely have OpenSUSE on my list to try sometime and if for some reason I need to switch my system

I'm just learning about all this stuff but yeah, I'll definitely take a look at Arch, although just out of curiosity, since I am overall satisfied with Debian.

Yep, that's exactly what I care about and one of the reasons I ditched Ubuntu. I guess I'll look into OpenSUSE as a potential alternative if I feel like distro-hopping in the future (although I know even less of its relationship with SUSE).

I am learning about community-based Linux distros as they are my preferred choice compared to corporate ones. And when I get to Fedora, what I see from the fence is a sofisticated, well-supported OS.

However, seeing that it is sponsored by the Red Hat corporation, the question arises: could Red Hat eventually take control of the project? I suppose the answer comes down to how much weight Red Hat actually has on the development of said distro. From what I know, it has employees dedicated full-time to it.

Let's rephrase the question and say that the Fedora project ditched Red Hat from its development due to some irrepairable decision; how viable would the continuation of the OS development be as compared to, for example, Debian, which is also community-based but, as far as I know, has no such backing from a corporation?

Please, note that, while I am indeed a Debian user, I am not trying in any way to shit on Fedora. I myself am curious to try it out as I have recently arrived to Linux.
