We all want to see more people move to a free and open source operating system, but this story shows how those users may one day turn around and contribute to the very projects they use! Awesome to see :)

So I'm going back to #fedora, that I've been running on the laptop for close to 10 years now. My only quill with it is the lack of ZFS support, as I would have liked to make a ZFS pool out of the old Windows Storage pool (5T+3T+2T).
So either I use the community-supported ZFS RPM and have to be extra careful and pin my kernels, or I put that pool on Btrfs. Could also be a good use-case for bcachefs, but I'm not sure I trust it yet...
I have a theory about 6-month Linux and BSD upgrades having their own kind of "stability" because there's not as far to go between releases https://zola.passthejoe.net/blog/six-month-stability/
What is your favorite version of Fedora Linux to use?
I didn't think I'll live long enough to see all of the GNOME wallpapers in a Fedora release.
I now have #Erlang in #OpenBSD and #Fedora#Silverblue. Just for fun. Not anticipating profit.
