I’ve been using Debian-based distros most of my adult Linux life, but I read recently that KDE has a better experience on Fedora than Kubuntu, so I want to try it out.

I already know that I won’t be able to use apt, but what other differences should I expect with fedora?

The do not have an LTS release? What is upgrading like? When should you upgrade if you want stability?

    Thank you for this! I’m going to use it as a handy checklist of things to configure, beyond what the RPMFusion wiki said to do.

    I think a lot of these I will not need for my hardware, or wait to cross that bridge if I need to. But, one thing I thought was strange that the installer did not configure was hostname. So I’ll definitely copy what you did:

    hostnamectl set-hostname "$HOSTNAME_SHORT"  
hostnamectl set-hostname "$HOSTNAME_PRETTY" --pretty

    (might need sudo).

    Thanks!
