    As in part of a review process?

    Things like:

    • Software update process
    • Installing software which isn’t in a repository
    • Seeing how the community is for support ?

      Installing software which isn’t in a repository

      This is a massive one that’s often overlooked. For example, I love Bazzite, but it’s nigh impossible to install Private Internet Access’s client on it. On the other hand, installing the VPN my work requires is trivially easy, but you’d have to build it manually for any non-RPM-based distro.
