Nothing wrong with Fedora Gnome. I’ve been using it for several months (well ok technically Nobara but I decided to try vanilla Fedora recently and it’s about the same). Prior to that I had been using Mint / Cinnamon for a decade and it’s a good choice too.

But truth be told the Gnome simplicity / minimalism has been growing on me. I wished it were more customizable but whatever.

Fedora is a very very mainstream distro, too, so help is easy to find if anything goes haywire.

PS: nobara is great for gaming but the big gotcha for me was that updating from the shell prompt requires a somewhat involved set of commands. If you use a simple dnf update you’ll break something like I did. Which is why I decided to give Fedora another go. If you choose Nobara, just use the (slow) GUI updater.

The other commenter who mentioned installing and using Gnome tweaks, etc. nailed it. Do that. :)
