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.

Not to revive any lame memes, but have a look at Arch Linux! I've been daily driving it for 10 years. It's way more "updated" than fedora is.
does it have same interface? Fedoras gnome is unmatched (...to me, as far I tested around distros).
Or is there any other equivalent, similar to fedora and its gnome?
Arch doesn't come with an interface, the idea is you build it up from the bare minimum yourself
Wouldn't recommend if you just want a usable desktop os
As for gnome, gnome is gnome you can get it on any distro
Will try, just for novelty as second pc..see where it goes
