From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Fedora has images which you can create yourself as an enduser which means a corporation with thousands of computers can create their own image. They don't have to create a new distro. That's not possible with suse but I don't know if that's so important since I do not administer such things. I as an enduser do not care about the underlying system, I don't tinker with it, I rarely touch it. That's the case for both distros. I may install a vpn or so.
If you want to tinker with your system, neither fedora nor suse are good for that, using arch is the way to go.
Why is fedora better for advanced users?
And why?
I just asked because you stated that it's better for advanced users and I wondered why because I don't see it yet
