I'm not really a Fedora zealot... Ubuntu is probably a better base for most things. I pretty much use it because they tend to be at the head of the line of new desktop features. First it was BTRFS support, and lately it's been things like TPM-based filesystem encryption with measured boot.

I actually like rolling-based distros as a concept, but I wish nix/arch had a "stable" rolling channel like Gentoo does. Gosh, I might be talking myself into installing Gentoo again.
