Can’t argue with that, I think that’s true. On the other hand, it creates dependencies on a one-man project which in the long run might not be a sustainable and secure choice. Also, does it still have Brave as the default browser? Because that is honestly a huge dealbreaker for me, Brave as a project is disgusting.

not really, that’s just Fedora with a fake Moustache glued on :) OP didn’t say they were incapable of installing a few packages, which in my opinion is the only selling point for Nobara.

Strange to see no one recommending plain old Fedora yet 😢 it’s stable, performant, up to date, and compatible with just about any hardware. I’m daily-driving it on my notebook, playing tons of games without issues. As for desktop environments, I’d highly recommend KDE plasma since you won’t have to relearn everything at once (compared to GNOME), and also the KDE apps are a lot more configurable than GNOME’s. Keep away from Cinnamon (default for Linux Mint!) or Xfce unless you really know what you’re doing 😄

I read a great article recently that tries to analyze what exactly went down and for what reasons. And most importantly, the effects it’s going to have on different hardware prices: https://www.mooreslawisdead.com/post/sam-altman-s-dirty-dram-deal

I opened the comments to mention Ready Player One, and I was delighted to see you’ve beat me to it 😅 What a dumb piece of trash.
