FEDORA has been announced.
I indicate it as the most modern as it has
Wayland
PipeWire
NTFS in the kernel (via patch)
GTK4
These 3 elements combined OOTB in a single distro, alone, moves it ahead of the other mainstream distros, for now. This puts them almost into the future, per se, of all the mitigating hardware issues that these 4 components will be addressing over the next few years, IMHO. Thus, it is baked into the Fedora base.
FYI
Y'know when I started into Linux back in the late 90's early 00's Fedora was the worst ,most ill conceived distro I came across. The only thing that had a chance of working was the rpm and that was a ways along the track. File permissions and root access were a bloody joke . The user HAD to be protected lest they damage something ,so, all useability was lost to ensure the user did nothing bad.
I don't think I would ever go there again unless there was a VERY ,VERY good reason to do so. They are now run by IBM .
Thank heavens Barry came along around the same time.
The Australian State Governments have all enacted laws to steal your assets on your death. All legal paperwork is binned and all assets seized on one disgruntled child's complaint.Move them well before you die or go into a home.
We could always compile a "huge" kernel for Puppy Linux (with AUFS supported) with the NTFS support enabled.
I've experimented with Pipewire on WDL-Void-xfce4 and WDL-Void-jwm, I should try to compile Pipewire with a Fosspup64 specifically built with woof-CE without the ALSA support and see what happens.
