- Yes it is still a good choice
- The “Red Hat Drama” is largely unrelated to Fedora (also, it is pretty overblown and misunderstood by most people voicing opinions on social media who tend to be repeating second and third hand misimpressions, and/or presenting very black/white hot takes and hyperbole because it generates clicks, views, and upvotes).
- Telemetry has not been introduced in Fedora, but if it is the proposal is to clearly present users with a choice to opt in/out during install and for all telemetry to be privacy respecting and anonymized, transparent, and optional. Telemetry is not inherently bad so long as it is (1) privacy respecting, (2) transparent (3) clearly optional (4) for legitimate development purposes. In fact if you trust the developers Telemetry is good in most cases, as it helps improve the app and your experience.
- Any major linux distro is a big improvement with respect to privacy and control over your system and your data compared to Windows 11.
