I recently ditched Fedora for Ubuntu. The package system gave me a hard time a lot of times, as there were a lot of things that were unavailable and I ended up struggling to install and configure stuff. It's just that apt repositories are better, as they are more commonly used.

The last drop in the glass was when I was trying to get a PostgreSQL server running. After a couple of hours, I decided it was easier to reinstall ubuntu and just get it with apt.
