CentOS is good if you want to stick with a RH derivative for servers. SuSE and Mandriva also work with servers. Ubuntu server edition is used by Wikipedia and other big companies, so I don't get why people are running it down. It has five year support and is stable.
Fedora is a desktop distribution and a very good one. It is bleeding edge, but not unstable. If you stick with the basic repos and don't enable Rawhide, there isn't a problem. Fedora is not as user friendly as Ubuntu, but if you like hands on approaches it is great. SELinux is something that gives newbies fits, especially those moving from Ubuntu where you expect things to work more simply. You can shut it off or learn to manage it.
