kernel updates freak me out though to be fair Fedora might have the highest ratio of (# kernel updates) / (# number of previously working but now broken pipelines), especially if you wait a bit after the update. I used to have a non-linux certified laptop and had an especially bad few years around 2022 with ubuntu where every update I waited for something to break and my screen to randomly flicker. Lost atleast three linux comrades (using the same laptop) that year to ios.
good distro for having a heart attack every six months
What do you mean? Ive upgraded every release since Fedora Core 1.
