      And Fedora is just desktop os that evolved into the server area and if there is really smart guys that want to use it as an server os be my guest. Please pave the way with your beta testing and downstream to centos . I have choosen my side.

      You have a serious misunderstanding of the Fedora/RHEL/CentOS relationship if you believe this is true.

        So they added a couple of things and container support and now people like them as a server os.

        If centos dies I will go to Debian. I want OS that is older than me , slow comfortable updates. Thank God I live in third world country where evolution takes centuries , we want centos.

          Your reasons for choosing CentOS don't align with your GUI choice.

          In the above example I use 2 centos with not desktop environment + 1 Fedora with lxqt and I choose lxqt cause it is light

            Also to piss off MOAR ppl

            Centos is the best due stability and boy I love the LTS

            And Fedora is just desktop os that evolved into the server area and if there is really smart guys that want to use it as an server os be my guest. Please pave the way with your beta testing and downstream to centos . I have choosen my side.

            What packages are you using on CentOS LTS that break on Fedora Server?

            It is the constant updates and fiddling around, didn't Scott had Fedora issue with storage recently ... I rest my case

              Yeah Scott had an issue with inodes.

                He could've had the same issue with any distro. inodes aren't specific to Fedora, or even Linux (File ID's in Windows)

                  I guess you are too young to have lived though this, but RedHat Linux became both RedHat Enterprise Linux and Fedora Project.

                    That had nothing to do with Fedora. Did you not bother to read the thread?

                          I got triggered cause there can be only 1 KVM MASTER

                          It's weird that you're attempting to take the KVM Master role with a GUI install

                            Why is that any more weird? The CLI is still there to be used, but as far as a tool goes, a GUI is just another one. . .

                                  CentOS uses inodes too. Every Distro uses inodes.

                                    Not really. Fedora is the base of both RHEL and CentOS. It's the regular release vs the RHEL LTS. If you're calling Fedora not fit to be on a server that means that both RHEL and CentOS are both equally unfit.

                                        Why is that any more weird? The CLI is still there to be used, but as far as a tool goes, a GUI is just another one. . .

                                        It's wasted resources. I'd think the KVM Master would be as efficient as possible.

                                        If a tool is needed, why would it be wasted resources? I get what you are trying to get at here, but a tool is a tool is a tool.

                                        If you need a GUI to do something (whatever it is) and it's the best approach "you" know then why bash the tool?

                                          I got triggered cause there can be only 1 KVM MASTER

                                          It's weird that you're attempting to take the KVM Master role with a GUI install

                                          So my old users who say they can't operate a computer shouldn't learn the right way to file things digitally. We should be okay with her using paper because she understands that? I understand what you're saying, but how far down that rabbit hole do we go?

                                            The Virt-Manager is being hosted either on a VM or on a desktop. It's not being hosted as part of the hypervisor. Think SCVMM, Hyper-V Manager, XenCenter, or vCenter.
