Hello @Dylan-M . Unfortunately the decision is the same, we are not planning to add Fedora Linux as a new image.
If you have any questions feel free to reach us.
Guys, is there any progress on adding more Runner Images?
Fedora is declined, even no image for Debian is available (why the holy distribution fish, Debian was first...)
I guess self-hosting a runner is really the best option.
@stefan-it Hey! There indeed are no plans to support hosted Linux runners other than ubuntu at the moment, so a docker container / a self-hosted runner is the best option if you still need an alternative distro or its version.
Ubuntu's official kernel and packages is too old 🥺

Brief description of request
Fedora has been requested many times.
Per #1443, "Since we see popularity of this request, we will keep it on mind and will be able to revisit this decision in future."
That popularity has not ceased, with at least six (counting this one) issues requesting it in some fashion.
There are many reasons why doing this via containers running on the Ubuntu image is not a valid enough solution. For example, there are just some things you cannot do with a container.
Reasons to add this:
