Rationality is out of the window. Ideology is the new religion. They don’t want to become “socialists” even though they don’t know what it truly means.
Mereo is a sociologist who is also a nerd. He believes in open-source software.

OP said he didn’t want to waste his time. Arch is not like Ubuntu. It requires you to RTFM (and Arch documentation is excellent) and know what you are doing and be willing to learn from your mistakes. That takes time and dedication. I went with what OP said.
I love to deal with problems but I don’t want to waste my time.
Then Arch is not for you. The distro requires you to always be informed of the latest news regarding Arch before upgrading so you’ll probably have to admin your system.
If you’re not ready to do that then you should probably stay with Fedora.
My suggestion: run arch in a virtual machine and get familiar with it before installing it.

It reminds me of Fallout.
Are you talking about ext4 or BTRFS?

I disagree. My partition is ext4, but Timeshift saved my ass when an upgrade went wrong. I just had to restore the system from a previous snapshot taken before the upgrade.
In my opinion, it depends. If a distro has BTRFS configured to automatically take a snapshot when upgrading (like OpenSuse Tumbleweed), then BTRFS.
If not, for a beginner, ext4 + timeshift to take snapshots of your system in case an upgrade goes wrong will be fine.
It’s not that easy. Case in point, Daikatana: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daikatana?wprov=sfti1#Development
If you look at the data that KDE exports, there’s nothing that directly identifies you. That’s why I’m willing to help KDE. Like I said in my other post. It’s all about transparency.
Yes. It’s all about transparency. I can see exactly what KDE is exporting, so I’m willing to help KDE. I cannot say the same for closed source software.
This is what happens on my phone when I update apps at the same time:
Wait? What?! Android didn’t support this basic feature? iPhone did for quite some time now…
That’s why the French protest all the time. They fight for their rights.
What the hell happened to her leg?
What the hell?!?!?! This is a server OS! It needs to be as light as possible and for the sake of server stability and security, admins carefully choose the installed apps. Microsoft can’t just install new applications on a whim.
This is fuged up.
Yes, I agree, it has to be fair for everyone. What I’m talking about is instinctive, primal behaviour that we can’t control because we’re social animals and when we meet we naturally have a discussion with the person we’re talking to and we might end up talking about the project without taking into account our colleagues far away from the office.
We’re still adapting to this new hybrid reality.
