Why are you choosing Fedora over Mint or vice versa? What distro do you use and why?

    No-one is mentioning NixOS, which is strange. My next install will be Nix, I’m currently on EndeavourOS.

    I like the idea of immutable systems. They allow you to rollback updates/package installs, they break less often and it keeps the system away from the apps.

    I’ve never had an issue with it since I started to use it and I will probably never look back.

      If you like immutable systems, you might want to check out Fedora Kinoite if you haven’t already.

    I currently use Fedora Silverblue, mainly because of the easy rollback, and because it makes package management easier. I like having a default base to add and remove from (and being able to easily rebase onto a different spin). That said, regular Fedora and Mint are both solid distros.
