Is 1000 times better than ubuntu

Please share your experience. Why do you think so?

For me, the first reason I prefer Fedora is the installer. ?

There are multiple reason to me...

The first one is that i like their principles (even if i don't strictly follow them)

I like the fact that they give users that almost vanilla experience with every desktop

And dunno why but i love that blue all around fedora :p

Dunno why but I actually prefer xfce, but GNOME is alright

I really appreciate this viewpoint!

Unfortunately they are hard to follow (for example they propose not to use mp3 or m4a in favour of ogg, which is very difficult but we can't deny fedora's free principles are good

:)

I don't like the installer, I prefer ubuntu one

But I love fedora

Because of the gnome app, gnome welcome app

Update from the store (like Mac os)

I absolutely agree. I deal with similar things daily. It's difficult to hope and pray everything will work with VP(8/9) WebM, and I know I'll be fine with H26(4/5) MP4, and it also offers better performance. But I wouldn't prefer Fedora not push for free things, because that's how we get to the point where they're commonplace and not niche. Fedora is an advocate in my perspective.

Of course, MP3 is also free now too. But besides, for audio, I want OGG anyways… MP3 is too lossy ?

That was just an example...my car stereo only read mp3/wma/m4a so no ogg for me...but anyway i agree with their point of view

I too, think fedora is an advocate and i like it

Fair enough.

At least we do have MP3 now

Interesting question: What is the prefered, libre video codec for movies?

Isn't it something like OGV?

Isn't it something like OGV?

Yes, just checked https://audio-video.gnu.org/docs/formatguide.html It says Theora video codec in ogg or WebM

Oh yeah, I forget about WebM too

But I think OGV is better for high quality video

I have no way to back that up other than a hunch though

wait wait .. but php ? whaat .. never seen something in php like that

I did - well, mostly machines autobooting chrome to display index.php

Ogg flac or wav for HiFi?

FLAC for lossless imo

I guess OGG is neat if you don't have that much storage and want lossy audio

What about opus?

ogg is not ogg

ogg can either be vorbis or opus

vorbis being the old one and opus being the flashy new one

And what's the best?

that's a very political question

of course, the best is lossless

OPUS is better for voice-centric audio, not so much music.

but for lossy compression, there is really no way of saying what is best. All codecs have various parameters you can tune and with enough time you could pretty much make all sound very similar

of course, the best is lossless

I know, but i have only a 120 gb hdd :(

It's a wonderful codec nonetheless.

OPUS is better for voice-centric audio, not so much music.

I've read that, but never seen any real sources

I think the differences should be negledgible, right?

It's a wonderful codec nonetheless.

So vorbis should be better for music?

I've read that, but never seen any real sources

I did some very light and small sample size testing and yeah... Effectively insignificant ?

So vorbis should be better for music?

ehhh you are really overthinking this I feel

So vorbis should be better for music?

It probably won't matter much at all tbh

Buy yourself a 1TB harddrive from all of the time you've saved worrying about it

In reality i'm just curious...i generally use mp3 or m4a :p

they are incredibly cheap these days (if you have regular income)

I know but i have a laptop that supports only 5mm hdd

In reality i'm just curious...i generally use mp3 or m4a :p

mp3 quality depends on the bitrate mostly. High-bitrate mp3s are really good, but the low-quality ones give it a bad name

Hard to find compared to classic hdd

until recently the issue was a different one though: patents

well, external

For me, the first reason I prefer Fedora is the installer. ?

while i agree, i have to ask: have you tried the rpmdrake installer???

well, external

Already have a 1 tb external

while i agree, i have to ask: have you tried the rpmdrake installer???

I don't believe so.

But you know, to me internal one is better

I don't believe so.

on mageia?

on mageia?

Oh, is that the name of the Mageia installer? O_O

ERROR: S client not available

And i fully agree with all of @legacychimera247's points :)

Oh, is that the name of the Mageia installer? O_O

Yee

I really should pay more attention. Yes, I've used that one. :D

ok, but the fedora server is 64bit, is possible install in 32bit?

I think there's a netinstall version of the 32 bit version.

I remember reading it somewhere.

I will try!! tk vm!!!

No problem

32-bit images and kernels no longer maintained and even tested, so switch to x86_64 arch.
