Second, I will call attention to the fact that different Fedora

those running Fedora Server and Fedora Cloud are likely far more

*development* platform. Folks running Fedora Workstation or the KDE
spin are likely to be somewhat more interested in the development
side of things (though not exclusively).
Fedora Workstation includes very, very few development-related
packages, to the degree that it is completely unusable (by itself) for
almost all developers.
I share this experience. I used "Fedora Workstation" on my machines, but
found myself heavily customizing it, because it did not suite my needs
("Development" + "Classic (xfce) Desktop") + "file/print server").

ACK. They seem to be addressing the "GnomeOS-Massmarket Consumer
Desktop" and "Data Center" use-cases. Both aren't mine.

In comparison to former releases, with F21, I had to remove many more
packages and then to install many more other packages :-)
