It's no more better than anything else. I prefer Arch and Gobolinux.

Linus uses it, so judging by the quality of Linux code, it's probably terrible for development.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Lunix, is in fact, GNU/Lunix, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Unix. Lunix is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Lunix, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Lunix, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Lunix is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Lunix is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Lunix added, or GNU/Lunix. All the so-called Lunix distributions are really distributions of GNU/Lunix.

For better or worse, Fedora has pretty fresh versions of most things. The worst thing is that they stop supporting your distro about two days after you installed it.

What exactly is a "custom" version of Ubuntu?
>>17
My experience is simply related to a distro that is better than debian/ubuntu on the packaging point of view (packaging policies are not so restrictive).
Unfortunately it sucks hard if you try to customize it. Debian gives you much more customization power, while Fedora is not so well structured.

Can't comment on that, because I don't really bother with customizing things very much. And with Lunix quality control being so shit customization usually just means things break even more easily.
