Wheeljack@nerdbin.socialtoLinux@lemmy.ml•Migrating away from Fedora, looking for advice.
1·
1 year agoI think if you want meaningful recommendations, you have to say:
- why you want to get away from Fedora
- what you liked about Fedora that kept you there until now
- what you hope you’d get from a new distro
- any nonstarters that would keep you away from a distro
Without knowing those things, it’s just going to be people proselytizing their favorite distros rather than suggesting one that will fit what you’re looking for.
I don’t really grok products like this.
If you have a fundamental disagreement with a platform, continuing to engage with it, even through a condom, is still perpetuating it. It’s maintaining that platform as still important and integral, and a place that others should continue to engage with. It’s telling advertisers that it’s still a place that’s worth their money to maintain a presence on. It stymies the momentum in shifting to an alternative; why put the effort into a new service if people are still seeing your posts?
It’s like pirating Windows instead of moving to a different OS. You’re still perpetuating the MS hegemony and telling software developers that Windows is the platform they need to develop for.
