Is there a reason to pick Fedora over Ubuntu? (lemmy.world)

Ubuntu is the leading distro, if I'm not mistaken. It's also compatible with Mint, Zorin, Xubuntu, etc, which are another leading distros than Fedora. Is it only for redhat users or secondary distro?

I think Ubuntu is a popular distro. Not necessarily leading in any way. There's other popular distros out there, distros with good documentation, simple to use or beginner friendly, distros which are fast or have a lot of software available. And I'm -personally- not a huge fan of Canonical's business decisions and what they're trying to push on a given day... So I pick different Linux distros. YMMV.

    Maybe you mean Cachy OS or Tumbleweed?

    Sure. I've heard a lot of praising words towards Cachy OS. Tumbleweed might be your thing if you're looking for an easy rolling release distro... I didn't mention any specific ones since we all use computers differently, we all have different use-cases, levels of expertise... And I also don't just use one distro. I have a different one on the server than on my laptop, I use yet a different one for retro gaming... There's just so much out there and depending on what exactly you do, could be any of a dozen or so different options and they're all good (or there's reasons to pick or not pick them...)
