For example Red Hat Enterprise Linux or SUSE Enterprise Linux.

I’m considering switching to RHEL, to get a “professional” Linux, since it’s free if you register an account, but is it worth it?
Is the experience very different from Fedora?

    Can I assume you’re not actually running an enterprise distro?

    I mean, me neither, yet, but:

    • Both SUSE and Red Hat have had a minor release this year, with their software being less out of date than Debian
    • I feel like enterprise distros seem to be very different in the areas where differences between distros actually matter: Package management (which can be fine-tuned a lot more with application streams, security updates, package modules, etc.) and complete, up-to-date documentation (which is the thing most people miss in Linux).

    I was really looking for real world experience, not a re-hashing of unvalidated opinions that have been around for >10 years (when they might have actually been true).

      It looks like you have your mind made up and are looking for affirmation, not discussion. Next time, say that instead of being an ass to people trying to help you.

        I think I was pretty clear with what I was asking in this thread:

        “Is anyone here using an enterprise Linux distro?”
