As a provider of one such remix, I must say it's a labor of love. A
viable supported RPM for Fedora of RStudio Server would render my
remix irrelevant.

Honestly, I think my days as a full-on remix are numbered. I can ship
a small set of scripts to install what's on my remix to a Fedora
Workstation and then distribute everything else as Docker images.
