or traditional Fedora, which also has often unstable packages, dnf is often unusable

My experience with dnf is that it's slow as molasses but your average computer user isn't gonna install 10 new CLI apps per day /j

I've used Discover (dnf or flatpack backend) and you can install just about any software with 1 click. It takes a minute to install but that's fine.
