I am really considering moving from Arch to Fedora. What's your experience with this? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Is the loss of pacman and AUR that bad?

What things are to be gained? I expect that SELinux and Redhat backing should really make fedora way more secure.

I'd have to think RPM Fusion is comparable to the AUR, no? I've never used Arch btw, but I do know Fedora pretty well.

Fusion is a managed 3rd party repo, isn't it? AUR and copr is more individuals creating packages

Ya, RPM Fusion is handled by a 3rd party I'm pretty sure. But I was thinking more along the lines of what software is available though.

@shreddy_scientist @Kwdg you can go check out the rpm fusion repos to see what's there. Mostly I use it for nvidia drivers and patent encumbered codecs. Historically some of the same people who work on Fedora also work on rpm fusion.
