I do not see the benefit of using timesyncd over chrony. Arguably,
chrony is a much better implementation and having a consistent time

integration and management.
?
Timesyncd has a smaller foot-print and lower resource requirements, is
part of the system management framework ( already installed ) and serves
I would say majority of usecases out there which makes it a better
distribution default since today distributions need to cater the entire
spectrum ( embedded,cloud, containers, servers, desktop etc. ) and I
think you are mistaken if you think that chrony is being used across all
variants in Fedora ( I suspect that is an exception rather than a rule
these days ).
It's in at least the Cloud base image, KDE live install, Server DVD
install, Silverblue DVD install and Workstation live install.
So it's not on IoT and CoreOS which also means we already have
experience of running timesyncd instead of Chrony in the distribution
which is good.
I said "at least". I don't know either way about those. I'm not clear
if your mail is saying you do, or you're assuming my leaving them out
of the list meant I knew for sure they used something else, which would
not be a correct interpretation.
I assumed you leaving them out meant for sure they used something else I
hence stand corrected.
