Just switched to fedora after 4 years of archi. LUKS broke, the h264/h265 aren’t there, and it has redhat’s repo of flatpak selectioned by default rather than flathub. But hey, at least printers work OOTB!
The media codecs is bloody annoying, yes. Sure it’s only a command or two, but it really should just be a tickbox in the installer like it is on, say, Ubuntu.
As for the Flatpak repo, Fedora switched to Flathub as the default a while ago. IIRC it only doesn’t if you choose to have no non-foss software during the installation.
I think Fedora is an overall pretty great distro for beginners aside from their media codecs bone-headedness.

I’d disagree with that, mostly.

…and the installer is garbage.
And slow repo sync but it’s not that important
Both getting fixed with Fedora 41 luckily, DNF5 by default and a new installer they’ve been working on
Good but other issues will remain and Fedora was never meant to be a noob-friendly distro in the first place.
