There seems to be  "tradition" to put a single color selection in front,
e.g. blue for Fedora, green for Suse and it used to be brown for Ubuntu.

I hope we can free us from this approach and first think about what it
is we are trying to express. What are the defining characteristics of a
specific distribution? What do we know about the audience? What is the
tone we want to hit, the posture to adopt? What is the message? How does
all of this translate to a color scheme and stylistic choices?

That said, take a look for the colors used so far:
