Hypatia, and all other Divested apps, are dead. The Dev (Tavi) is done with their Android projects.

Look again. Reverse the numbers and you get 2102. Feel old yet? Look again.

I was just kidding. I know that no one uses that in common conversation, but it'd be funny of everyone went around saying the standard by its identifier.

Ah yes, ISO8601. Just rolls of the tongue, doesn't it?

Mostly because Fedora is more popular. I like both.

openSUSE Tumbleweed gives you much more control of what gets installed by default (you can customize every package during the GUI installer). It has been the most stable distro ive used. It is a "rolling-release" distro, meaning that packages usually get updates quicker from upstream. If you dont like getting frequent updates it may not be for you. A key feature of openSUSE distros is the system management apl Yast, which allows you to manage a lot of stuff from a GUI.

Fedora is also quite stable. I think it's more user-friendly in my experience. After Debian/Ubuntu based distros, Fedora is the most likely to have packages built for it by developers (I'm talking 1st-party builds, not repacks). Fedora is a semi-rolling release, meaning updates are frequent but not constant.

Fedora is currently my distro off choice, but I may soon use Tumbleweed again. I daily drove Tumbleweed for a year on both my general PC and my admin computer.

glibc == gnu C library

It is the standard C library used on GNU/Linux systems. Basically, it is very important. I've also heard that the code is a rats nest. I wish standard distros would move to musl libc.

I saw this as well. I just use Flatseal (or KDE's builtin Flatpak permission manager) to remove any permissions I don't like. I do that for all apps.

If I was on my PC, I could reply with my Flatpak overrides. If I remember I'll reply here.

TL;DR Yes, go for it it'll be fine.

Build it yourself source-driven distros?

Double the pool, but they'll still have zero chance because 0 * 2 = 0. Such is the life of a bi

Bazzite is great Fedora-Atomic-based distro, especially for nvidia users. I had a friend move to Linux and that was the distro that worked. But in general, if someone is a programmer/Dev, they want to learn how to use Linux, or just install a lot of packages, I'd avoid Atomic.

Don't get me wrong, I use Atomic. But it isn't as straight forward as a traditional distro.

The equivalent of Bazzite but traditional Fedora is Nobara
