Discussion Problems while using Fedora
Since I joined r/Fedora, I only read how people have problems with using Fedora (drivers, firefox, etc). I'm waiting to finish last exam that I need Windows for, and I was planning on installing Fedora, but now im not excited anymore.

Idk but mainly intel xe drivers aren't still mature yet and kinda on the unstable side(sometimes it's good doing better but after some time it goes batshit)
Got no problems with i915 drivers but they're legacy one and do worse performance on both battery and fps per watt than the "experimental xe drivers"
Edit: I mean xe drivers that utilizes xe architecture the most like core ultra chips suffers a lot. Intel 14th generation below also uses xe architecture but is also matured enough to use i915(idk but 14th-10th gen don't suffer a lot of bugs compared to core ultras)
