I wrote an article on my switch to Nobara Linux. I think this community might enjoy the journey.

The problem is that it doesn't support secure boot

While I like secure boot and leave it enabled when possible, to be honest it only protects against a type of attack so elaborate its pretty much useless. Whenever its minorly inconvenient I just disable it without worry.

Secure boot is also required if you want TPM2 unlock support. Pretty niche, but nice if you have a full disk encrypted system.

Why is that a problem?

So, turn it off?
