Robert Plant can do whatever he wants.

I don't currently use it as a daily driver, but I tried. The basic, core experience is fine. Depending on what you need, it could be great. In the end I went back to using macOS (though I did ask myself what was working so well for me with GNOME that I wanted to try the experiment to begin with, and that has resulted in a leaner, simpler macOS setup).

The stoppers for me were webcam support (it kind of worked, but with bad image quality issues), and a number of Flatpaks quietly failing at launch. Non-stoppers but papercuts included that you can find ARM packages for some things but they're direct downloads instead of dnf sources you can set up (e.g. 1Password, Sublime Text), and there are a few weird glitches with some fonts that work fine on x86 setups.

It's trivial to set up dual-boot, and pretty easy to back out if it doesn't work for you, provided you read a few paragraphs of documentation. I've done it twice on two different machines.

The "D" is sort of plowing into slabs of ballistic gel. Cheeky callback to the hidden arrow in the FedEx logo. There's some talent lurking on fiverr!

Maybe just lore, but I've heard sometimes the picture-takers will try to induce people to smile to sour how they're handled by others in the system, since the smiling supposedly indicates a lack of remorse or concern for the gravity of the charge. I read one thing that suggested prosecutors will show a grinning mugshot to anger the jury. I also heard never eat PopRocks then drink a Coke because your stomach will tear open.
