      That's nice, Debian based ones do that too but way before this.

        I disagree. It is a waste. This is a Workstation. There should not be 70GB of shit outside of the /home directory.

        Honestly, for a Workstation, I simply remove the separate /home partition and expand /. But for those that want it separate, that is fine. But 70GB? Just WTF.

          i do exactly the same thing, which is why my initial reaction. Such stupid IMO.

            So is it arbitrary?

                @JaredBusch wow official docs say that 20gb would be more than enough

                  @matteo-nunziati that makes it even more interesting that it defaults so large.

                    I wouldn't rely too much on that documentation since its reusing the same documentation from previous releases and those screenshots are showing Fedora Server 21.

                        It is the official docs. I'm just being stubborn about some screenshots that doesn't go with the current release.
