Since switching to fedora, I have been testing out its features and i just now ran into my first problem; Since my laptop doesn't have a SD card reader, I have to use an external SD card reader when i want to access my microSD cards. I recently tried to put in my Acer 2-in-1 SD Card reader and my system did not pick up that i inserted the card reader. I'm not sure on what I am supposed to do about that, so if anyone can give me any advice I'll appreciate it.

Understandable. However, I don't think it's necessarily unique to KDE (and thus Dolphin). The Gnome Files application does not seem to see it, either, if I leave it unformatted. Most cards I have bought came preformatted, so this may be less common of a problem for the typical user, though.

As for updates, Fedora is technically a rolling release distro, so frequent updates are expected. With Fedora 45 just having been released, there has been a slightly higher rate of releases.

I've had some issues with Fedora myself, and I found really good help after posting on the Fedora Discussion boards if you would like to try there.

I really appreciate your help, i really do. Im gonna see if downloading Fedora 45 helps, along with going through the community forum.

Happy to help! Best of luck to you in the forums. I was amazed how helpful certain people on the forums are. I had gotten myself into a real mess with conflicting packages and they walked me through the entire repair process. I don't think I could have paid for that level of service. YMMV as always.
