Most people would use something like CentOS in this casethat must be the reason for https://getfedora.org/de_CH/server/ i guess... most people need something like CentOS because they host random crap like PHP applications breaking with new versions the downside is when you host your own developments you stick with outdated software for years and *then* you can't upgrade your system because the difference between CentOS releases is way too big for a online update after 12 *online* dist-upgrades over 7 years taking around 2-5 minutes per virtual server and we talk here about any service you can imagine i can assure you Fedora was always suitable for hosting and given that when somebody tals about "install from scratch" he still lives in the windows worldPerhaps. But if I were to use Fedora as a server then I wouldn't be using a desktop GUI at all so the changes to KDE and even Gnome would not be an issue.
boah who talks about a GUI on a production server? they are stripped down to 750-900 MB sysfsbut that don't change the fact that anything which is used in production is as identically as possible configured on my development machines which for sure have a GUI and serve a lot of other things for the internal network (in fact at home there is a single machine connected directly to a cable modem acting as router, switch, NAT, WLAN-AP and what not else) and such a setup simply takes some days to be the same
given that this machine was installed in 2011 with F14 (before systemd) and surivived the systemd/grub2 transition *anything* what now would require me to reinstall is simply broken proven by the history of the setup and so hardly can be called a improvement
