Long story short…
As a visual basic then a .Net dev since school, I did play with “ipcop” as my first non windows machine
Then, I did add a distrib called “SME server” in my home lab which was based on centos
I went to “scientific linux” when I get a new server but upgrades to a new major release was a pain !
Then came “atomic host” for some years … and now it’s “fedora CoreOS” and up[dat|grad]es are so smooth !
Then, I did need a new laptop, and I bought a fedora slimbook 2 !
Now, My home lab is made with :
- 4 Fedora CoreOS (1 of them is in “next” stream) in a K8S cluster
- 1 more Fedora Coreos as standalone server
- 1 OPNsense
- 1 slimbook with fedora workstation
So, I went to Fedora thanks to a random choice from the beginning 
I’d like to thanks, the great community, and in a more nominative way @dustymabe, @bgilbert and @jlebon for the time and resources they did give to me with FCOS dev !
