Okay, cool. Won't disagree. How does voting for someone else, or not at all, help?
Like, okay, the system's broke. But we're stuck in the broke system (for now). Is it somehow wrong to want to lessen the harm the disease does while the cure is being made? Even if that difference is marginal?

I hate that I saw the word "threadiverse", knew exactly what it meant, and was still like " ugh frakkin' kids today gotta have a word for everything... "
Getting old sucks. I don't recommend it, but I also can't think of a better alternative.
I wasn't forgetting either, I just don't generally recommend either of those distros.
I don't recommend OpenSuse Leap because I honestly can't, for the life of me, see a use case for it. Debian is better for stability, Fedora is more up to date and still pretty solid. Tumbleweed represents another step into cutting edge land with its rolling release model, and I like it for that, and Yast is great and all, but Leap has outlived its purpose. It also seems like Suse agrees with me since last I heard, Leap was going to be discontinued.
I don't generally recommend Gentoo because it's a weird middle ground between Arch and LFS, and I'm not sure what it's for anymore. Don't get me wrong - I've done the Gentoo thing, and it really is excellent... but these days, it seems weird to me to want to go that far and not take the last couple steps to just build from scratch. Unless you're in it for portage, which I can totally understand. Portage is awesome.
Alright, got it. Thanks for the explanation! I'm actually running ublue on two computers right now (bazzite on my desktop, beyond on my laptop, although I'm rebasing soon), so I'm not like a total noob to all this, and I have read the docs. I was just having trouble parsing an idiom.
I can see that, but if that's what they're afraid of, then unless they need enterprise, Fedora is an empirically better choice. It's more up to date, and it's where RHEL updates come from (well, kinda).
If you're afraid of missing out on new fun stuff, any enterprise OS will be a bad fit for your use case. Here's the breakdown as I see it; this is me, YMMV:
I'll cheerfully recommend other distros for more niche needs; I don't have anything against other distros (except maybe Arch derivatives that seem more like a GUI installer, a software set, and some user scripts...), but those are all my go-to recommendations.
In this case, I'm using idiom in its "I was a Creative Writing Major at College" sense; that is:
A speech form or an expression of a given language that is peculiar to itself grammatically or cannot be understood from the individual meanings of its elements, as in "keep tabs on".

So my use of the word here just means "expression" or "figure of speech," which is probably what I should have said in the first place; sorry for the confusion.
Edit: a grammatical correction no one but me would probably notice or care about.
This works, and I'm speaking from experience. Nothing makes a short nap more effective at clearing cobwebs than coffee right beforehand.
If you can manage both, do this and then go for a walk for about 20 minutes before your interview. Physical activity can also help wake up your brain, and a walk shouldn't get you sweating like heavier exercise might. Showing up for an interview sweaty isn't a good look.
Hey, I've seen the "batteries included" thing several times related to ublue, but I don't understand what it means here. Could you explain?
I know what the idiom generally means - everything you need to get started - and even the origin of the expression. I just don't know what the metaphorical "batteries" are here.
So say that. One word answers don't contribute anything, don't explain anything, and come off as, at best, insulting and dismissive.
Already agree with you, by the way. For exactly the reasons you just outlined. Well, except that I've taken to calling it "the bird site" because I don't think it deserves a proper noun.
I don't see much point to enterprise distros unless you have a specific reason to use one, i.e. specific business or server applications. So unless you need it for that, you're better off with a desktop Linux - Fedora if you want to stick with rhel's sphere, Debian if you want super stable.
I mean, yeah! Trump's facing 91 felony charges at my last count, and been indicted at least 4 times, but sure. Ain't nobody doin' nothin'.
