I use Fedora as my primary development OS in my various machines for ~8 years. Previously I was on various SuSE versions and even farther back I was on Slack.

Around 2011-2013, I used on my work(office) machines Ubuntu while I continued to have Fedora on my laptop.

Fedora not only did it have more recent packages, it was so much more stable than ubuntu that it was incomparable.

In general I find Ubuntu as the most unstable distro one could use :/

Also, dist upgrades are a bit unnecessary when you can have your /home in a separate partition and do a fresh install of the newer Fedora version in a couple of minutes.

It seems to be an unpopular opinion, but I completely agree. Personally I find Arch to suit my needs better than Fedora, but I do recommend Fedora to friends who aren't going to be setting up i3-wm and want access to the AUR. In the last five years, Ubuntu has been the only distro to cause me major problems that weren't easily resolved. That might partially be familiarity with Arch, but something tells me it's a little more to do with Canonical.
