    The AIO docker compose container is far better, and I’ve run Nextcloud in pretty much every installation path in the last decade, using baremetal, my own docker, snap, NCPi, and VMs. All of them have had issues with updating, backup and the host going sideways for some reason or another. The AIO has been flawless for far longer than any of them managed.















  • That’s the shits. Hardware can be finicky with Linux, especially laptops.

    I would try Nobara or Manjaro, both have some pretty good hardware detection and updated/non-free drivers. Fedora itself doesn’t have certain things in it that aren’t “free” by default.

    But you might not be destined to use Linux and no shame in that. Keep trying back if you change hardware.


  • That’s less about Fedora and Linux than it is about Gnome.

    Coming from Windows to Gnome is a shitshow, honestly I think it’s the main reason there isn’t more Linux users. If that’s your first introduction to Linux, no wonder people yell screaming for the exits. It’s not an easy transition.

    Using DEs like Plasma or Cinnamon is a way more welcoming way to change over. Maybe eventually you’ll want try Gnome and it’s opinionated workflow, but I think its a terrible way to start out an already jarring transition.

    Nobara is a good distro to use Fedora and have KDE by default, with the option to change later. And it has a pile of video tweaks and fixes for gaming and editing out of the box or via the welcome screen tasks.
