I though Fedora was a "niche" distribution from the beginning. It
has been aimed to the more technical user from the beginning. It
tries new things, and sometimes breaks things. It counts on users to
help find bugs, and report them.
Linux is about choice. Different distributions are aimed at
different user bases. I have never understood the insistence of some
people that all distribution must be designed for the lowest common
denominator or must compete for the largest market share in all
areas. I feel a distribution is a success if it fills the needs of
its target audience. Fedora seems to be doing this.
