More to the point, the only large active group trying to move things
forward for Fedora are those that care about the Desktop experience,
ergo those are the directions Fedora is going in. It's a serve yourself
kind of project, it is what you make of it.
My view is different:
Due to the fact the number of desktop use-cases likely by way outweighs
the number of non-desktop use-cases, has caused the Fedora distribution
to get infected with designs missing (rsp. ignoring) the demands of
non-desktop uses-cases.
Overall this has caused the Fedora distro to regress/derail from what
once used to be a "general multipurpose distro" into a "single-user
desktop distro".
