    I experienced the similar thing. It took me a while to get into a distro that just works for me, which is Fedora haha.

      Fedora was what I was using for years before arch. Ubuntu has always annoyed me.

      Decided to try Fedora for the first time after a year and a half of using Linux, having hopped through quite a bunch of distros (Pop to Manjaro to Garuda to Arch, where I spent most of my time), and man… I don’t think I’ll switch distros soon.

      Even had a chance to do so when I accidentaly “broke” my system (which I later found out it was literally due to my .bash_profile having some conflicting stuff), but every single distro I tried after it never felt quite the same:

      • No SELinux on Arch without using a lot of AUR versions of essential packages;
      • No pipewire or BTRFS on both Pop and Ubuntu without having to do a lot of stuff manually, and it uses an older version of GNOME and apparmor instead of SELinux, which I haven’t learned how to create profiles for;

      Even the pain points I had with Fedora are being dealt with, little by little:

      • FFmpeg will be part of the main repos with F36 (although a little gimped due to H.264 patents);
      • The secure boot patches to kmodtool and akmods will come with F36, which means secure boot can still be enabled even with custom kernel modules if you create and enroll your own keys, which is easy enough to do;
      • Waydroid has a compatible COPR repo now, without the need for a custom kernel, which I hope gets in the main repos in the future;

      The only pain point I have left is having a working and compatible version of Timeshift in the distros without having to do a manual install or a proper GUI to snapper.
