Trick is with these are those who need compatible products so they can match Red Hat systems run somewhere else. Test servers and so forth at colleges and the students who need to run tests back in their rooms but aren’t going to drop for RHEL.
I hope they can adopt XFCE or KDE as their default DE. I feel like it would fit better in enterprise setting.
maybe your experience is different from mine, I’ve only seen headless RHEL servers… never saw anyone using it as a desktop distro
Some people would set up servers with a DE, and use it to manage them.
In one of my past projects, I was working with a financial company and they’d use one of those VMWare with web inferface. We set up a Debian system; and because they didn’t know any better, have the default GNOME installed.
I remeber hating it so much, especially that they’re slow due to resource constraint. We were allocating 4 GB of RAM, which was all we could get due to being in early phase. You’d think 4 GB is enough for a server, but not when it’s running GNOME!
If it were up to me, I’d go headless. However, not everyone is into that, I guess. In hindsight, I’d probably install XFCE instead. KDE would be taking quite a bit of disk space, but it’d run surprisingly light.
