  "textContent": "Thanks for taking the time to write this, appreciate it.\n\nCould you explain the practical implications? I really like the idea of using SELinux, security is important to me, how much of a difference does that actually make?\n\nI agree it’s silly LM doesn’t enable FDE by default, I guess it’s trying to appeal to people moving from Windows and they might think it’s weird to enter a password twice. That being said, I hugely regret not opting for LUKS.\n\nI kind of thought Linux was some hackerman shit but honestly it’s easier than Windows, at least with Mint, is Fedora pretty much the same? I have used TailsOS too which was really straightforward. I am not really a technical user, though over the course of using Mint I now use the terminal quite a lot, for stuff like vim, ffmpeg, pdfunite, and general system stuff.\n\nUbuntu just seems like a bloated and corporate version of Linux Mint tbh, never understood why someone would choose to use that over Mint.\n\nA huge priority, maybe the biggest for me, is stability. I love tinkering for hours with stuff when I am in the mood, but if I have a deadline and need to get shit done, I cannot play around with drivers all day. With LM, I have literally not had a single thing I have had to do to fix stuff. Maybe a reboot the whole time. How much more “work” is Fedora in this respect?",
