"Canonical Extends Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Linux Support to 10 Years"
https://www.serverwatch.com/server-news/canonical-extends-ubuntu-18.04-lt...
I just don't see how we're going to be able to compete with that,
not
unless our Fedora LTS is just CentOS with different branding.
As I understand it the intend is not to compete with Ubuntu who has a
longer support, but to have long enough support to be a viable option
for hardware vendor etc. IMHO anything above 5 years doesn't matter
much on desktop, especially laptops. So Ubuntu could have 15 years of
support, but it wouldn't mean that Fedora with 3-4 years couldn't
compete with it.
