As I said I am not a 'Fedora person' nor am I an attorney. I am just a
long time user, but as I also said before - you should ask them. Why me?
Several of them have explained this here many times.

Or maybe if you would read this? This, the answers to your question, might
have taken 10 seconds to find BTW.

Same URL but this will surely line wrap.

These are the logical reasons that these types of things are not included
in Fedora. It is assumed, I guess, that if you think that you are clever
enough to use the 'Geek OS - Linux' and The Internet that you are are
clever enough to make it work?

And now some questions for you.

When you decided to try Linux did you not research it even a little bit?

When you decided to try Linux did you not look at the various
distributions, there are many and they can be very different, and what
they each offer and what their FOSS standards are?

When you decided to try Linux did you not study what would truly be 'user
needs to solve this problem for him/herself type problems?

Or did you just jump in and format over your Windows install?
