So Ive been on Fedora with KDE for over three weeks now. Its good. I like it. I started dabbling in Linux last year with a Mint / Windows 11 dual-boot setup. After some consideration, I decided to fully switch to Fedora to make better use of my cutting-edge modern hardware (though I think Mint is great for older hardware).

The other main reason I switched to Fedora with KDE is that one of my best friends works in IT and has been using Fedora for over 10 years. Having someone just a phone call away who can help me troubleshoot is awesome. Overall Im really happy with the Fedora system. Ive tested over 50 games and all of them run pretty much straight out of the box on Steam.

I mainly use this machine for gaming, but I might try my hand at content creation in the future. If you have any input or tips, feel free to share them with the class ^^

You're in luck with KDE! If you're going to be doing Art or Videos, KDE has something for both: Krita and Kdenlive. If you need to record your screen, OBS is usually what I go for. Edit: Inkscape for SVGs, GIMP for image manipulation. Something like Audacity (or it's fork tenacity) for audio manipulation.

OBS is like the gold standard at this point. I don't use it a lot but the fact that it's so robust and free puts it up next to VLC for me.
