Now to be fair, this is the default behavior of KDE Neon, which I transitioned from. But you can turn that behavior OFF - it will apply the patches and then you'll get a notification "hey, you need to reboot before these take effect" and then I could finish what I was doing and reboot when I was goddamn ready to do so.
Fedora KDE seems to have removed this setting from Discover. Apparently they know better than I do what I really need to be doing with my system.
Anyway. It's a pain in the ass.
OK, it turns out I do have one big gripe about Fedora. At least the KDE version of it, I have no idea if the Gnome version is the same way.
There are updates to Fedora almost every day. That's not my gripe. My gripe is that Fedora forces me to reboot every time those damn updates are downloaded before it will apply them. And because the updates are ALMOST EVERY DAY that means I'm rebooting my fucking desktop ALMOST EVERY DAY and it is a pain in the ass, because HEY I'M TRYING TO USE MY COMPUTER
Hey over on another social media site most of the people here hate that isn't X I saw a link that let you buy surveillance equipment on behalf of people in Minnesota who were monitoring ICE (body cams and dash cams mostly I think). I thought it was a good idea but irresponsibly didn't save the link. Anyone here know anything about that? Can you point me in the right direction?
I have been using an ultrawide monitor for a while - I got seduced into the idea of "hey, this really big monitor can replace your two monitor setup, you'll use less electricity and it'll save space." And I think both those points are true, but I also think I've lost some utility. Two separate monitors are essentially two separate desktop environments joined together, and that has a lot of advantages with the things I do. What do you think? Two monitors functionally better than one ultrawide?

The whole reason the PC revolution was a "revolution" is because everyone was tired of renting processing space on mainframes. And like almost every revolution in human history, the revolution was followed by a bunch of rich people trying to recreate the previous regime. The cloud in practice is not much different from you leasing cycles on someone else's mainframe, but they try real hard to get you to ignore that part.
OK, first real snag - Audacity crashes on Fedora when I try to use the fade out effect. It doesn't do this on KDE Neon.
It seems I will have to edit podcasts on my laptop.

So at this point I'm pretty much fully migrated over to Fedora 43 (KDE Edition), and while I do miss apt and it will take some time to get accustomed to dnf, that's not a showstopper. Fedora has a problem a lot of distros have, which is when the power management settings trigger "sleep mode" it never wakes up again. The solution is to set the computer to never go into sleep mode, though I'd rather there be a better solution than that.
... which surprised me - I'd always thought of it as being primarily Gnome, with a very committed bunch of KDE enthusiasts maintaining their own spin, but it seems KDE leveled up over there. So I figured I'd try it. Now I need to learn dnf, which is a lot harder to say than apt but it's also a lot funnier so it evens out.
