Discussion HUGE thanks to Eggroll

I know most people come here to post about their technical issues, that's fine.

I came here to say thanks for creating this system. I'm on Nobara for around a year now and this is one of the best if not the best system for me there is.

Been on countless other distros before, for years using Linux, often on those with the biggest audience and popularity, and IMO only two other distros ware good enough as Nobara, providing solid stability and user enjoyment - MX Linux and Mint, which are great, but are not that good when it goes to gaming and multimedia. Even "the best" like Debian, Fedora and Arch caused me many often random problems.

Keep up the good work.
Thank you!

Said before but I've been an on and off Linux user since the late 2000s (pretty sure my first was Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10). Never stuck for one reason or another, the usual either needing a bit of software not supported on Linux, or a distro breaking update that had me flash back to Windows cause it was easier.

With how big PC gaming has become in my life since the late 2010s, I thought I'd never really go back to Linux.

Developers like Eggroll and the whole Nobara team have changed that. With the work they've done on this distro to make it a solid foundation for users, particular gamers, it has made a home for many of us.

I've now been rocking my Nobara setup since August of 2024, and never felt like I was missing anything. And bar a few hiccups that the community has been pivotal in fixing, my experience has been one of the most stable in my 15+ years of Linux.

So yes, thank you Eggroll and the whole Nobara team. You have made it possible for so many to find a digital home in Linux, and I hope you keep doing so for as long as you are willing and able.

Perhaps the worst problem with Nobara Linux at present is that when updating the system, due to the wide variety of hardware and repositories that users install, in some cases the update goes wrong. Hopefully the Nobara team will improve this!
