Fedora is as updated as Arch and as stable as Debian.
Fedora is vanilla latest tech Linux Experience without breaking.

I hate how Debian insists on installing packages for you.
No, I didn't ask for lightdm when I installed that desktop, for fuck's sake.

Debian is overrun by trannies and Fedora is controlled by anti-white cult of Red Hatters.

Anything redhat related (after what happened with systemd inclusion vote), not because of technical reasons but to give them a gigantic "fuck off, don't touch my stuff".

If you're fine with debian testing there shouldn't be problems with devuan as well, it's literally the same distro with systemd hard dependencies dissected:
https://www.devuan.org/os/development
The difference is so minimal that by existing as a separate project made possible for Debian to use other init systems as well.

Then use them, friend.

Because of my work, I use multiple distros and operating systems.

Generally, here's my current hybrid setup for my family and business

>Servers (cloud and on-prem)
Debian
FreeBSD

>Desktop/Laptop
Fedora
PopOS
MacOS
Windows

>Virtual Machines
Kali Linux
Arch
OpenBSD

I, for one, don't believe you. I've seen people complain about Fedora breaking just like Arch, and the issues they complained about sounded less user error than the typical Arch shit.

I've used Nobara extensivly in the past. The secret source is the glorious egroll script which can be installed on (probably) any distro. I'm on arch now. running the script was easy.

None, it's missing gentoo.

Arch is the ideals of gentoo, just look at the "fanbase", there's no one larping and screaming about a specific distro other than archfags

i wish it was a different selection - say for example Slackware (stable boomer distro), OpenMandriva (trying out new tech), OpenSuse Tumbleweed (rolling) but they are all less popular. If Archinstall would set up snapper (+ grub integration) automatically it would take away OpenSuse's main advantage

Arch if you like updooting and don't mind fixing stuff on occasion
Debian if you don't like updooting and don't give a shit about your system
There's no usecase for Fedora or any of the other 853458 distros
