The website doesn't really give the impression that it intends to be a mainstream OS. Marketing seems to be "lightweight hacker distro using musl, but simpler than the others in the same category". I wish Linux distributions could advertise to existing Linux users without inadvertently causing this sort of confusion among the non-Linux tech media. Many Linux users don't want the OS to take off, because things will get materially worse in many regards if it gets popular. You often only find the new users and tech media theorizing about the 'year of the Linux desktop', or about Linux's product weaknesses in the narrow lens of comparing it to Windows. Fedora is able to balance this public image issue fairly well. In their landing page, they emphasize that it is for "developers and makers of all kinds". But because Fedora Workstation actually is fairly close to being an easy-for-all-users distro, in their "Is Fedora For Me" page, they have this paragraph that essentially explains that it might also be for non-developers as long as they are curious/enthusiastic about computers in general: > The Fedora distribution is made for enthusiastic and curious computer users that like to learn and experience newer versions of software and therefore might not suit everyone. Although the Project works hard to make Fedora as usable as possible for the widest possible audience there are inherent limitations on how fast a new software can be translated, gain accessibility features, provide the most comprehensive documentation and guidance. If you on the other hand need a stable Linux distribution that supports even the latest hardware, are willing to put some effort to help the free and open source software (FOSS) community and file some bug reports this might be a perfect system for you!
