From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Nobara is highly hacked together and not well maintained. It is a cool proof of concept but should not be used for daily usage.
Lol, but why? I use it for my daily usage! I game, surf the web, edit videos in Da Vinci and do a lot (a whole lot) of audio work on Reaper. It has been updated following the Fedora cycle and you easily switch from Gnome to KDE. If you go to the Discord you'll see it is actually well maintained. Having tried a few distros, I settle for Nobara because it's basically Fedora with all AV codecs and drivers pre-installed, exactly what I wanted. You may not like it personally but I don't think it's right to say it doesn't work for daily usage.
Yeah for sure you can do that, but it is not secure.
Updates are extremely delayed and not CI/CD like for example ublue Bazzite.
It has disabled SELinux.
It uses a custom Kernel and tons of other stuff.
Its for sure cool but the performance increase is like 5% (TheLinuxExperiment tested that once) and not worth the issues.
I would use Bazzite instead, you can layer stuff or different things, ublue has a Resolve Podman container afaik. Reaper has no Wayland support, does it? Last time I tested it at least, a few months ago.
Cool that their releases are good, my knowledge was from the 38-39 upgrade which came months too late. But tbh Discord is not a good way to document, ublue does the same though.
Got ya
