Why are you choosing Fedora over Mint or vice versa? What distro do you use and why?

I tried Fedora this year and really don't like it. I'm sticking to arch/arch-based : the learning curve is steep but onse you get used to it it's really efficient.

What things do you not like about fedora?

The fact that it is difficult to personalize, firstly. Coming from Plasma and before that Zorin, I find it hard to change the look and feel of the OS.

Then there is the package manager. TBH, after having the Pacman/AUR combo, nothing ever comes close to it in terms of simplicity.

Plus I don't know but I find it bloated and laggy. But then again, maybe it's just me. That's the beautiful thing about GNU/Linux, it's that yog can choose the distro that fits your needs.
