Recent studies prove the ancient practice of nasal irrigation is effective at fighting the common cold

um, hang on
after detection of COVID-19 via nasal swab, nasal saline irrigation performed every four hours over a 16-hour period decreased COVID-19 viral load by 8.9%. Meanwhile, the viral load in the control group continued to increase during that time.
they were checking the exact location they rinsed? ๐คจ I'd like to see the "viral load" measured at a different location (blood test?).

I like Tumbleweed, but it doesn't have the software I need and want
Cachy/Arch is too unreliable for what I want
Debian/Ubuntu are too slow with updates
Best I would know might be Debian unstable or PikaOS, but idk how they are in terms of reliability compared to Fedora

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐ง๐ฎ • • •While I ympathize over the frustration, Fedora is a testing ground for new technologies. It's intentionally bleeding edge. If you're running Fedora you're signing up to beta test and should expect bugs.
It would be different if a person were running an LTS release or even a stable short-term release, then stuff like this shouldn't get pushed through. But with Fedora it's in its nature.
Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐ง๐ฎ
in reply to DistroWatch • • •@distrowatch that is not the reality of how it is advertised and presented to users
"A customizable high-quality desktop, built on the latest open source technology. Trusted, powerful and easy."
That's how they describe it.
And further down, in a bold heading:
"Reliable"
Something can't be a "testing ground" and be reliable.
DistroWatch
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐ง๐ฎ • • •I agree, something can't be a testing ground and reliable.
Fedora is a testing ground, therefore it cannot be reliable.
How they describe or advertise their distro doesn't really have anything to do with reality then, does it? Almost every Linux distro describes itself as "reliable, secure, fast, efficient, etc". That doesn't make it true.

They don't care about the golden goose Linux has been gifted that is gaming.
