From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

On one hand I want to upvote you, because OP will really have a much better chance at getting good support there.
On the other hand I want to downvote you for just “forwarding their call” to another forum, instead of helping directly. (I've had bad experiences with unhelpful Linux communities where people basically just tried to find the quickest way to move someone out of their support channel)
I'll keep it neutral, I guess.
Their forum is okay
I mesnt you just referring to another place to get help. But yeah, their forum really is a neat place for this
We have way too many uBlue questions here that are specific to their very opinionated distros.
General Fedora questions go to discussion.fedoraproject.org, general stuff can go here.
