Pros: OS doesn’t spy on you, better privacy, freedom, the OS will not tell you what you have to do. Just do whatever you want to do, change whatever you want to change.

Cons: Maybe gaming support, this is what I see people complaining. I don’t game myself, so can’t say much here. After using Linux for 20+ years, I personally don’t have any cons. The OS works perfectly fine for both professional and personal life.

+1 for mailbox.org so far so good, managing own encryption key is a plus

I know this feeling, also removed all my stuff from Github.

For private projects I’m using my own private Forgejo instance, iinstalled via Podman, which works very well in a quite cheap Netcup VPS.

For open source projects, I’m using Codeberg, they provide an amazing service!

I’ve been using Linux for more than 20+

First distro: Slackware, then Debian for many years, finally Fedora, since 2014, very happy user.

What I like in Fedora: the 6 months release provides bleeding edge experience without compromising stability.
