DEVELOPING ON LINUX
Hey guys, I'm trying to switch to Linux and have been using Mint for about 3 months, but I don't like the system. I also have no need or time to use super customizable distros like Arch and Kali (apparently programmers' favorites), do you guys have any recommendations? I made some research and was thinking about Fedora or Zorin

What exactly do you not like about Linux Mint?
Also, is Kali really more customizable than others?
I guess my main bother was the system performance, I have it installed in pretty fast hardware with great storage but it still feels a bit like I'm running Windows 7... It has crashed a couple of times on data modeling tests as well. Overall it's not a bad system I just felt like I couldn't get used to it. Also, I would prefer software management that revolves around the DNF and RPM
if you like DNF, Fedora is probably a good choice
I personally like Ubuntu with snaps but that's a pretty controversial opinion (I have reasons that apply to me but probably not for you - and apart from that, I'd use Kubuntu when I'd have to reinstall it) - if you prefer DNF, Fedora is probably good but make sure you are using DNF5 and not DNF4 (at least I'm really annoyed about DNF4 on servers with low memory)

SeLinux (the secure mosule of linux that fedora uses) is too safe and was a pain in the ass when configuring a proxy server 😂.
Other than that, it works perfectly AND uses DNF
