Fedora 35+ is the closest I have come to really enjoying Linux. Fedora always seems a lot more polished and less edgy. I cannot really get into any of the other distros for the UI. I like using Debian for all command line.
I've tried Fedora recently. The package manager didn't pass my stress test:
1. Did a minimal installation without a GUI.
2. Installed Gnome.
3. Installed KDE.
4. Uninstalled Gnome and KDE. The system ended up in a broken state: many important packages were deleted, I couldn't connect to the network, and the package manager stopped working.
Same. I've tried many, many distributions. Fedora definitely feels the most polished. Ironically, I find Ubuntu to be one of the worst, and it seems to be the default most people try.
(P.S. Fedora 34 is the most current released version)
