What do you all think of the Red Hat drama a few months ago? I just learned about it and looked into it a bit. I’ve been using Fedora for a while now on my main system, but curious whether you think this will end up affecting it.

My take is that yes, it’s kinda a shitty move to do but I get why RH decided to stop their maintenance given they’re a for profit company.

What do you guys think? Do you still use or would you consider using Fedora?

    Red Hat owns Fedora, just like how they owned CentOS. I think there’s a risk that Red Hat will make more anti user moves going forward, and I also think that it’s not worth spending time learning the “Red Hat ecosystem” now that CentOS is dead. Get away from Fedora.

      “I think there’s a risk that Red Hat will make more anti user moves going forward,”

      Fedora Stream?

        I know you are just joking but if Fedora Stream was a rolling release of Fedora, it might be kind of a nice distro. I guess it would be Red Hat’s answer to SUSE Tumbleweed.
