This year we made good progress. You know, Linux gaming becoming better, Reddit fucking up, Metaverse failing etc. But on the other hand Big Tech has or are planning to make some moves. Such as, Google's Web Enviroment Integrity API (EDIT: they backed off), UK's encryption bill, etc.

So what do you think of the future? I'm currently optimistic. I think the best recent event was Reddit fucking up. Obviously one of the biggest information sources going down that path isn't something to celebrate. But it was bound to happen. I believe decentralized social networks becoming more popular is what Aaron Swartz would have wanted if he saw how Reddit was being managed.

Fedora is a reasonable choice. You really don't have to do anything other than enable flathub, and install the steam flatpak.

If using nvidia you need to install rpm fusion and get their driver... But that's not hard.

Pop_OS! is another good option. System76 is doing great work on it

IBM will run fedora to shit same way they did with CentOS

Completely different parts of the business. Fedora does not directly compete with RHEL. CentOS was exactly RHEL without the support contract.
