In the Ubuntu world we would go to an LTS release but on the RPM/Dnf world is there any other distro apart from CentOS Stream?

CentOS Stream is not a distro, it's the carcass of the distro that Red Hat killed, CentOS. Stream is a beta testing program for RHEL, no more, no less. CentOS wasn't even a Red Hat project originally, but Red Hat hired the maintainers of CentOS and gained control over it.

When Red Hat killed CentOS, going revising CentOS 8's previous end of life from the end of May 2029 to the end of December 2021, one of the original founders of CentOS, Gregory Kurtzer, started Rocky Linux as a replacement for what CentOS was supposed to be, an open source, binary-compatible version of RHEL. Rocky Linux works well for this purpose. I've heard that Alma Linux does, as well, but I have never tried it.

I know that CentOS stream is more kind of a rolling release but... feels like an LTS distro in practice... or it is just me?

CentOS Stream should not be used for anything beyond hobby projects. It is, by nature, buggier than Rocky Linux or RHEL, and it was never intended to be stable. And there's no reason to use it: If you want more stable versions than Fedora, Rocky Linux works just fine.

Do you need the Windows partition for something specific? I used to dual-boot because I needed Windows for a previous job but have been Linux-only for years

Nope, drivers are platform-specific.

Maybe it's because I'm on a VPN, but I never get ads

They're paying for their own lawyer. ~~Support them at https://www.patreon.com/yuzuteam]~~

Edit: They're not fighting it, don't donate

They offer legal aid to high-profile open source cases. So if you want them to notice, raising awareness of Nintendo's current actions against Yuzu is a good step

If you wish to support us a different way, please join our Discord and talk to bunnei. You may also contact: donations@yuzu-emu.org.

Or you could wait until the EFF commits to representing Yuzu (like they did for youtube-dl) and donate to the EFF at that point


There's a request on r/yuzu for a GoFundMe, but it has no response from the devs so far.

I have a desktop with Fedora

IMO snaps aren't bad enough to choose IBM instead

You could not live with your own OS. Where did that bring you?
