Why Fedora

Why Fedora on Lineserve

Fedora is where tomorrow's enterprise Linux is built: new kernels, GCC, Python and container tooling land here first — ideal when you need what shipped last month, not three years ago.

  • The newest kernels, compilers and language runtimes in mainstream Linux.
  • Upstream of RHEL — what you build here is where the RHEL family is heading.
  • First-class container tooling with Podman built in.
  • The image is free on every plan — you only pay for the server.

FAQ

Questions, answered

The current Fedora release, kept up to date — Fedora ships a new major roughly every six months, and our image tracks it. You can also bring your own image with a custom ISO.

Fedora releases are supported for about 13 months, so they suit servers you actively maintain and upgrade. For boxes you want to set up and leave for years, Ubuntu LTS, Debian, Rocky or AlmaLinux are the better fit — we offer them all.
