				 olback106465yIn my experience, Arch based distros have worked the best. I have never used fedora on actual hardware, but it seems nice. olback106465yIn my experience, Arch based distros have worked the best. I have never used fedora on actual hardware, but it seems nice.

				 SomeNone6715yI tried Fedora recently… in my opinion, it is trying too hard to be similar to MacOS yet different in subtle ways. SomeNone6715yI tried Fedora recently… in my opinion, it is trying too hard to be similar to MacOS yet different in subtle ways.

				 bytewind1095yPop!_OS has great hardware support out of the box because it's the one a Linux computer seller installs on its products. It's based on Ubuntu and runs a Gnome based DE. It's what I use on my XPS 15. bytewind1095yPop!_OS has great hardware support out of the box because it's the one a Linux computer seller installs on its products.

				 pipe3135y@MagicSowap No problem with Manjaro, I just like to try other things. I might go back to it if the next distro I try doesn't suit me. pipe3135y@MagicSowap No problem with Manjaro, I just like to try other things. I might go back to it if the next distro I try doesn't suit me.

I have Manjaro KDE on my Acer Predator Helios 300 (dual boot with W10, unfortunately, because games/some programs needed).
I want to try another distro.
Is Fedora a good choice ? Is there any potential issue or things I should look out for ?
Do you know a good distro that runs fine on that hardware ? I'm just curious here.
Any tip before I backup my home ?
I put the / on my SSD and the /home on my HDD. Any reason why I shouldn't keep it that way ?
Thank you :-) !
