I’m in the market to find a new distro that is similar enough to Fedora that switching won’t be as laborious as I’ve had it before. I keep hearing POP!_os is a good choice but I’m going to as the community what they think is good.

    That’s funny. When the maintainer of AT&T unix’s perf group was looking at a distro to clone and support, RPM>Deb was 90% why debs were excluded.

    Maybe something changed dramatically since then.

      You mean Adrian? He’s an odd duck and I wouldn’t take his choices at this level as anything other than some obscure tiny performance improvement.

      My issue with RPM is even the official packages didn’t put files where the standard they wrote said. Admittedly I haven’t used an RPM distro in 20 years so it’s possible things have changed.
