Originally this was a reply to this article about a Windows feature called Recall, but there’s a good argument the author’s concerns resonate far beyond Windows and Meta to proprietary generally.

      Fedora is an international collaborative effort but Red Hat is the main sponsor and it is US based. We will have to be careful and observe

        And the new leader (whatever the fuck it’s called) is going to be a Red Hat employee. It’s why I left Fedora despite liking it quite a lot. That’s way too close to IBM for my liking

          What do you recommend thats as complete as Fedora out of the box ? I used to be on Arch but it was time consuming to tune everything up and Fedora was the bullseye between the flexibility of Arch and a complete solution without much tinkering needed.

            I was in the same spot not too long ago. I would probably recommend CachyOS or Endeavour. They’re Arch-based but a lot of the preconfiguration has been done (e.g., you will have a browser, and printer support, out of the box. Try using Ventoy and just throwing some ISOs on it, makes it really easy to try different distros

              I was on EndeavourOS and it broke 3 times after major updates and i got sick of fixing, i dont have the time for troubleshooting all the time or tinkering with configurations (sadly because i do enjoy it). Maybe later when my life gets less busy which i doubt.
