Recently, Fedora has just seemed to fit my needs perfectly. There are a few quirky things every release, but most of them are easily fixable if you look into them. Having bleeding edge packages is definitely worth it. Yum works amazingly now, way better than it did back in the day. Pesto makes upgrades much more reasonable and less annoying. The RPMFusion repos make everything I need availible pretty easily. Overall, I've just been really happy with Fedora 9-11 and haven't strayed from them at all really.

I can only speak from personal experience of course. I used Fedora Core 6 for a while and it was pretty good then I moved in to a distro hopping phase. By the time I came back it was Fedora 9 or 10 and the experience was at best frustrating.
Others love the distro; <troll alert>they are mad of course
</troll alert> and that's fine. Linux Format magazine always give Fedora really high marks when they review it so I'll put it on my test box in the hope I agree. I disagreed so vehemently with their assessment of 9 and 10 that I didn't bother trying 11.
Who knows maybe 12 (or unlucky 13) will win my heart backIf we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate! (Zapp Brannigan)
My new blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.
