It's been well known for awhile now that it's his preferred setup.

He seems to want as much stability as possible; while being as minimal as possible; with as little fuss to install and keep up to date as possible. Fedora meets those needs. Gnome is Fedora's main concentration.

He explained that in the linked video - Fedora makes it easy for him to test custom kernel builds.

Oh I didn't know Gnome was the official flavour now, last time I paid attention it was still KDE

I don't think it's ever been KDE.

It's been a long, long time. I think Red Hat 8/9 (from 2002-2003) had a default KDE build. Even in Fedora Core 1 Gnome was default.

Now, there's a separate build to download for KDE. It's likely because Gnome is default install for Red Hat Enterprise Workstation.

He must not use any gnome extensions.
