Hello fellow lemmings! Fedora KDE user here, and quite happy about it, it didn’t break a single time and packages are up to date. The only thing that bother me is DNF’s speed… a single search
may take up to 5 seconds, and if I’m dependency-hunting I may need several searches, summing up the delays. I’m asking if switching to openSUSE Tumbleweed could be a good idea or not. The idea of the rolling release is really intriguing, whole system upgrades always makes me nervous, and zypper, being written in C++, should be faster than DNF.
I would stick to Wayland KDE, as my current fedora setup.
Other than this, I don’t see any other obvious pros or cons, so I’m asking you: why should I switch and why shouldn’t I? any tips from someone who used both?
thanks in advance!
Would installing doas instead of sudo on Fedora fix this or would both still utilize dnf?
I never heard of it, what are the pros/cons?
Open doas handles admin activity through the command line. It is only ~3,000 lines of code, while sudo has ~170,000 lines. doas does 90% of sudo commands and is more secure as well. Mental Outlaw has a great video on the topic.
