Trying to download Fedora to install on my dad's PC on the weekend. The "Workstation Edition" looks to be what I personally use, Gnome-based. Then there's several "Atomic" editions, that all claim to be "containerized" by using Flatpak for "all graphical applications".
I like the idea of him using Budgie. But what do I download now? The workstation edition and just replace Gnome with Budgie? The atomic edition and ignore flatpak (which I don't like).
