Fedora, maybe?

Edit to make my point:

• It is free and open-source.

• Fedora has a rather fast release cycle. It offers new versions roughly every 6 months, along with regular package updates.

• Has been using Wayland by default since Fedora 25, so it aligns with your preference to avoid X11.

• Allows you to set up full-disk encryption.

• Doesn’t freeze its regular releases for more than a year.

• Supports a wide variety of hardware and aims to offer the latest kernel and drivers.

• It is a large project.

Ubuntu or Kubuntu. Long are gone the days where I used to tinker with different Linux flavors.

Fortunately, I can afford powerful enough systems so I do not have to be worried about optimizing every single aspect of the OS.

I want things just to work out of the box. I am aware that this applies to more distros than Ubuntu, but I just do not have the time and energy anymore.

I really dig the style. However, I live in a town that has a fairly common name and the application defaults to another location.

Is there any way I could prompt the right location?

Thanks!
