Fedora vs. Arch Linux: How to choose your next Linux distro (and which one I use)
Quoting: Fedora vs. Arch Linux: How to choose your next Linux distro (and which one I use) | ZDNET —
The first Linux distribution I ever seriously used was Red Hat 5.2 (prior to the creation of Fedora). Back then, it was the best option for just about everyone.
It was also hard to learn.
Fortunately, the Linux landscape is much different now, and there are distributions that are so easy, they make Windows look like it was created for Albert Einstein-level brains.
That doesn't mean every distribution is created equal. Even though there are versions of Linux that are easy enough that your grandma could use them, there are also distributions that are more challenging, as well as those that would challenge system admins and developers.
Today, I want to talk about two distributions that exist somewhere in the lower-middle of the Linux difficulty ladder (which ranges from Linux Mint all the way to Gentoo): Fedora and Arch Linux.
