Sadly the two main reproaches people do to Red Hat in this article and
its comments is:
- Red Hat/Fedora "threw away its desktop community"
- Red Hat/Fedora is a "kind of amphibious, proprietary/free creature"
So even today the masses think Fedora is an under-RHEL not suited to the
desktop and because closed software is certified for RHEL Fedora must be
somehow not pure FLOSS
