The question is more: why are people moving away from Fedora, when you look at the stats: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Statistics . Fedora 14 was way more used than any other later version. I think this is related to the brokenness of the system: they pushed early a lot of the debatable technologies (*Kit, NM, systemd) that were not really ready at the time (this is a choice that can make sense) and they argued that the lack of polish was OK for developers, and moved on without "finishing" them. I kind of disagree on this latter point, and this is sometimes way too frustrating (I think the Arch way is more suited on this). And as this is not a rolling release, you need to wait a long time to get the fixes. Their approach to multimedia, codecs and patents is also one of the more ridiculous of the Linux distributions. And that is pushing also a lot of users out of Fedora, IMHO.

I went from daily driving mac and being very used to the desktop environment, and i am really hating everything i've tried in Linux.
