Fedora is awesome. Felt it was having too many updates for a Bitcoin dedicated machine though and occasionally issues with Sparrow updates. Slower LTS Debian bases played friendlier so ended up with LMDE.

If you install Fedora minimal via the Net Everything installer, then install only the desktop environment you require (lxqte, gnome, etc), it'll reduce the amount of updates and overall surface area drastically.

My #Bitcoin Machine only has ~1500 RPMs installed and runs at 5% CPU and <500mb memory.

I run ` dnf update --security --bugfix` often but only `dnf update` maybe once every other month.

nostr:npub13fz04jej7nktvtvg24dj926a5ctcmaw6ekp9028eux3pz3csxdrqgd77yu do you remember the issues you saw with Sparrow? I've been installing/upgrading just fine for a bit now.

That's encouraging. Will try this.
