This does seem to have a nice featureset that answers my initial question of why would I choose this over OBS

Yeah they might not always get everything right but I’d rather have an overactive mod team than an under active (useless) mod team especially when it’s all done for free

My instance has been really good, with some hiccups, but I also appreciate that it doesn’t rampantly defederate (to my knowledge) because while I can handle a more overbearing moderation staff I like being able to see other instances and appreciate the dialogue going on in them.

That sounds like more things to break or confuse a user

Edit: I will admit though, gnome’s desktop paradigm is definitely going to be alien to most people going from using a windows and even a Mac desktop which may not be worth the trouble when trying to switch grandma over to a Linux distribution.

That makes sense!! Good luck

I’m actually really curious in the claim that they’re working on WinRT/UWP support. I had always assumed that was just not possible for a project like wine to work with

I love to see the enthusiasm hell yeah!! I do have one question though, you say you’re excited because it looks like gnome, do you have a reason you don’t want to switch to a distro using full gnome?

This is impressive I love to see another addition to the Libadwaita family

I’ve used this recently and it works pretty well. AppImage isn’t my cup of tea but it’s hard to argue with “it just works”

Yeah considering OP already uses mostly open software and prefers things to be up to date I think fedora is a good option. If they use gnome then flatpak might suit them nicely, it has matured nicely. Only thing is that it won’t be as familiar to them coming from Ubuntu and its derivatives, but I don’t think it’s that tough of a transition to make.
