Fedora is desktop-focused. RHEL and CentOS are server-focused. I think there is a place for both. But who knows, maybe IBM will discontinue one, or both.

- LinuxBender 6y agoRHEL and CentOS are both server and desktop. The desktop is just not flashy or shiny or bleeding edge. The default install is/was Gnome 3 shell (For RHEL7 and CentOS 7). I am not sure if this is still the case, but Redhat used to require 100% of its employees to use RHEL Workstation as the desktop.
- doublepg23 6y agoI know a sales guy who had a choice of Windows or Mac, I think engineers use Linux.
- LinuxBender 6y agoThat's good to hear. I felt kindof bad for the receptionist being forced to use RHEL. This was during RHEL3 and the desktop was not great.
