Fedora Silverblue https://silverblue.fedoraproject.org/

You're expected to run most apps as flatpaks.

I stopped distro-hopping a few years ago after landing on Silverblue a few years ago (back when it was still called Fedora Atomic Workstation). While it doesn't satisfy all use cases, I view it as a boring (in a good way) 80-percent solution that normally just works.

Silverblue doesn't get a lot of press but it makes a really solid desktop OS.

Fedora has always been quite bad at branding and making their distro appealing.

It's probably one of the most solid Linux distros at the moment and their website makes it seem.. boring.. No screenshots, features, mentions of whats available (like apps), that Fedora uses newer graphics/drivers kernels, that you can run Steam, that apps are sandboxed etc.

Stark contrast to something like https://vanillaos.org/
