"Many desktops, multimedia codecs, and non-free applications are not available on Fedora Linux by default without some heavy tinkering." By heavy tinkering, do you mean a search, copy a couple repositories, and paste them into the command line? Heavy for Windoze users I guess.

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.

With Fedora 36 isn't anymore true you can just turn on the switch for third party libraries and than you have RPM Fusion also enabled. And now is Nividia open source and will part of the linux kernel and budgie is coming officially to Fedora. I think Ultramarine miss there time.

False. Just like F35, all it enables is the "Fedora third-party repos", which include Google Chrome's and PyCharm's repos, as well as Steam and NVIDIA Driver filtered RPM Fusion and filtered Flathub.
You still need to use the terminal to enable RPMFusion and there's nothing the Fedora team can legally do currently to make it available to users in an easier way without putting themselves to some level of risk.
Ultramarines you mean?
