Linux Mint vs Fedora ( both latest stable release)

Linux Mint vs Fedora ( both latest stable release)

I have a thinkpad E14 ig it would be best to ask here.

So I am confused between fedora 40 and linux mint latest release, my main concern will be I want better battery life, and I have w11 on dual also, battery life sucks (3-4 hrs) and I do little ML, webdev and coding more in general, and youtubeeeeee rest of the time.

Just need you guys 2 cents and recommendations.

I appreciate it, also like mint used to have old kernels but 22 one ships with 6.8 ig, I dont if from next release again they will stick to like 6.8 or lastest stable one like they did now. thats a concern Since I develop apps, I would appreciate if I have some up to date thingsss.

Thank you !!!
