It may not be home user choice, but in enterprise CAD PLM it is. Out of all the Desktop Distros, only SUSE and RHEL were supported so you had to pick one.
I’m not even talking just home use. I actually work for Red Hat. Granted I work in the public sector so what I see might be skewed, but I rarely ever see anyone use the desktop version.
Yeah, I’m sure there are segments that only use server stuff instead of workstations. I’m on the other end I only deal with desktop, as we have IT for server Stuff
I assume that’s part of it. It might be because most consultants wiped their company issued laptops and installed Fedora. Maybe they figured they should just give the people what they want.
Almost exclusively.
There’s desktop RHEL, we used to run a CAD software on RHEL or SUSE
I know there is. It’s just very seldomly used.

What’s funny is even internally we don’t use RHEL desktop. When I first stared our CSB (Corporate Standard Build) was RHEL 7. These days it is Fedora.
That’s interesting, is it because Fedora has more recent packages
