"The first Linux distribution I used with any level of success was Red Hat 5.2, which was before Red Hat became RHEL, and Fedora was a hat worn by Marc Ewing in his college computer lab. By the time Red Hat had become Fedora, I had already departed the land of RPM and found myself happily using the APT-based Ubuntu. I found Ubuntu exponentially easier, more user-friendly. On top of that, Ubuntu had more apps to choose from. I was sold."
"If you were to ask anyone in the Linux community who has been around long enough, they'll immediately tell you that Fedora is for those who want a bleeding-edge operating system that's better suited for those with plenty of Linux experience. I would argue that case... to a point. I don't believe Fedora is truly a "bleeding-edge" distribution. The Fedora development team does test all OS and app updates. On top of that, Fedora is not a rolling release distribution."
Red Hat 5.2 preceded RHEL and Fedora originated from Red Hat's lineage, with Fedora named after Marc Ewing's hat. Ubuntu uses the APT package system and offers a more user-friendly experience and a larger selection of applications. Fedora is commonly perceived as appealing to users seeking newer software, but it is not a rolling-release distribution and the Fedora development team tests operating system and application updates. Fedora remains suitable for developers and for users with varying experience levels. Both Fedora and Ubuntu are free to download and use, and both provide robust options depending on user priorities for stability, currency, and ease of use.
