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?

    I personally don't like what RH did, but their goals were pretty clear and I don't see how that has anything to do with Fedora. It's still a very good community project that also provides great value to RH themselves, so I don't have any fears that they might stop support, start restricting access or interfering with their work.

    And I completely agree with how they handled the telemetry thing. Telemetry is important, the way they want to implement it is fine with me, and they discussed it at length with the community.
