From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is where Universal Blue and Nobara come in. They are made to be plug and play versions of fedora inc. media codecs, Nvidia, steam, and so on.
FWIW, +1 for Nobara. I think it's an excellent turnkey Fedora for most purposes. But it's a little chancy on being dependent on a single maintainer.
But Fedora itself isn't noob friendly when you have to figure out how to add the non-free repos and install all the rest of the shit. Nobara takes care of that well.
