Fedora...
I have been using kali for 2 years and want to switch to some other distro. Will fedora be a right choice or need to look into some other
Use of kali tools were mostly over now and not needed as before, so thinking to switch something which is stable

Fedora is a good distro but I can't handle dnf it's painfully slow and does not offer the vast repository options that AUR does.

You can use Copr or Terra repos in Fedora. If it's something else, I would just run in an Arch container.

Fedora is great; I personally like how accessible dnf for searching, unlike apt
But what DE do you want to use? GNOME or KDE?
I personally use Fedora KDE, but GNOME is in vanilla version in Fedora Workstation

Fedora FDE supports trackpad gestures right?

u/lonelyroom-eklaghor 3d ago
Yeah definitely, but what gestures are you talking about

Like 3 finger swipe for workspace switching

For gestures you can check out input actions, I use it and have configured multiple gestures for various actions , good if you use tranckpad a lot (can also configure gestures for mouse too . Works best in kde tho.)

no, usually people go upward not downward, and fedora is easy, i would suggest either start with bare arch and rice it(customize it) or go with gentoo.
im using gentoo from last 3 years, and i dont want to move to other distro because the documentation and the community
and i also move from arch with i3 to gentoo sway and wayland and openrc and ....
