Fedora Linux (formerly Fedora, formerly Fedora Core) is a Linux distribution developed by the community-supported Fedora Project and owned by Red Hat. Fedora Linux contains software distributed under a free and open-source license and aims to be on the leading edge of such technologies. Fedora has a reputation for focusing on innovation, integrating new technologies early on and working closely with upstream Linux communities. The default desktop in Fedora Linux is the GNOME desktop environment and the default interface is the GNOME Shell. Other desktop environments, including KDE, Xfce, LXDE, MATE and Cinnamon, are available. The Fedora project also distributes custom variations of Fedora called Fedora spins. These are built with specific sets of software packages, offering alternative desktop environments or targeting specific interests such as gaming, security, design, scientific computing and robotics.

Popularity (hits per day): 12 months: 9 (1,007), 6 months: 9 (1,034), 3 months: 9 (1,152), 4 weeks: 9 (1,116), 1 week: 11 (1,003)

Average visitor rating: 8.24/10 from 398 review(s).

Table Notes and Explanations

(Please refer to the table below.)
  • Select view:
  • To compare the software in this project to the software available in other distributions, please see our Compare Packages page.
  • Notes: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The Apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.
  • Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.

Update to my review from 2025-05-11.
It might be very helpful for the ones (I mentioned in my previous review) that have problems with Fedora "freezing".
I changed the Refresh rate on my "main" monitor from "native" 144 Hz to 60 Hz and I do not have any problems anymore.
I use a higher level, newer, i7 11Gen, laptop which refresh "default" is 144 Hz. This laptop is my "base station" for another two monitors, and I do not use it for gaming, so I do not care about 144 Hs refresh. I just need it to work as a WORK STATION... and it works (so far) with the lowered refresh setting of the main (laptop's) monitor to 60 Hz, as the other two monitors are.
Of course, there were various reasons of the "freezing" Fedora reviews on the Internet, so... check them all to find the one you might have...

Awesome experience with Fedora Silverblue 42 (as well as 41). Absolutly rock solid, more than any other linux distro or even any other os (except macOS and ChromeOS). Zero errors or crashes and I am using it as daily driver.

Really easy for beginners, just go to the App Store and install your flatpaks But for most apps I strongly recommend the flathub versions of the apps! You can still install rpms, if you need.

I also love pure stock Gnome, especially on my Surface Tablet.

Best choice if you want an easy to use Linux OS that just works.

I recently tried Fedora 42 and was extremely disappointed with the experience. I intended to set up Fedora as a dual boot alongside Windows 11, but everything turned out to be far from what I expected.

When I reached the partitioning stage, I carefully ensured that I selected the dual boot option and prepared space for Fedora. However, after the installation completed and I rebooted my laptop, not only did I not find an option to boot into Windows 11, but my Windows 11 was completely gone.

This was incredibly frustrating because I was very cautious throughout the installation process and was confident I followed all the correct steps. There were no warnings or prompts to confirm my partition selections, and worst of all, it felt as if Fedora had completely overwritten my system without giving me the option to choose which operating system I wanted to boot into.

While I understand that Fedora is more focused on Linux users, my experience with dual boot on Fedora 42 was terrible. The installation process felt opaque and even ruined my previously working Windows setup.

This has been a very disappointing experience, and I’m left feeling extremely frustrated. Now, I have to find a way to recover my lost Windows 11 and restore my system. I hope the Fedora developers can improve the installation process and provide clearer warnings and more transparent options, especially for users who want to set up dual boot.
