Basically, install Windows as you normally would, but when asked for Time and Currency format, select English (World) instead of your country.
Then let the installer do its thing. Eventually, you will see a window with an ice cream cone on the floor with the words “Something went wrong” and the error message “OOBEREGION.” This cryptic message means that the “out of box experience” (OOBE) didn’t launch because it didn’t know which region to launch.
Click Skip, though, and Windows will install just fine. You won’t be prompted to buy Microsoft 365, you won’t be prompted to pay for a OneDrive subscription, and your Start menu won’t be cluttered with apps.
Honestly, there’s a half dozen that are just as good as Fedora out of the box, and dozens that are just as capable once broken in.
I have yet to find a distro besides Fedora that is actually reliable and works well with everything with minimal tweaking. Ubuntu and its derivatives are horribly unstable and finicky and everything else has its own issues. Fedora just works.
Dude what are you talking about? Are you running something super specialized or old, wacky hardware? Trying to use Wayland with an Nvidia GPU? I’d gladly put my Pop system up against any Fedora system and I wouldn’t have a hiccup.
If you would do any searching regarding Pop!OS you would see tons of posts and articles saying that it hasn’t been updated in forever and it’s not just graphics drivers and such that need updating, it’s essential OS packages. You’re running the Windows 7 of Linux distros and spouting the same arguments as they do.
Haha if you say so, kid.
