However, the majority of Linux PC users *must* step out of the happy path to get their hardware working for two cases:
- NVIDIA graphics
- Broadcom wireless
In the Firefox Public Data Report, GPU vendor is 69% Intel, 13% Nvidia, 13% AMD, 5% other. I don’t think Broadcom wireless is that common either. So it’s a lot of people, but not a majority of Linux PC users, probably less than 25%.
Well it's not like it's affecting a large number of desktop users since those 25% are at best 25% of the desktop market share in Linux, which is just 2.36% ( excluding Chrome OS which has 2.79% market share on it's own, higher than all other Linux distributions combined ( which are around 500 ) ... ).
Then you can further reduce that number by figuring how much % each distribution has of those 2.36% which should give you what Fedora has of that and that ends up being what 10 people, 100 hundred at best so you are sacrificing the core values of Fedora for those 10 - 100 vocal people...
