As a professional sysadmin for a (not just web) hosting provider, any time I've run into Fedora on a server it has been an indication that:
I could imagine it working in a devops environment at a company with a real development team that also happens to understand what sysadmins are for, but haven't run into that in practice.
Seriously though, for a server you need something where security updates don't end the day a newer version is released. LTS releases and security backports matter for stability, and you don't get that with Fedora.
Edit: To be clear, I saw all of those things on other distros as well. I just can't remember a single Fedora instance where I didn't see one or more of them.
