IBM strikes again
They have no idea how Red Hat was making money, they’re just squeezing it dry.
RedHats focus is on Enterprise Linux, Openshift, AWX, etc.
Are they even a “competitor” in enterprise Linux desktop? Enterprise Linux servers, sure, and I suppose a good number of orgs who don’t want to deal with dissimilar “user” distros, but I’d think Canonical would have enterprise desktop Linux pretty much sealed by now.
What disgusts me the most about Red Hat is their fake focus on “the open source community.” The fact is, the “community” is nothing more to them than free labor. They only seek out and merge changes and fixes that appeal to their enterprise customers. Fuck them, they’re getting paid, so let them do it themselves IMO.
FUD
You can disagree with the comment above, but it’s not “FUD”, it’s just criticism.
It’s FUD, redhat is a major contributor paying developers. It’s a sad news but it’s crazy to say redhat just profits free contributors.
I’m getting quite fond of the coining of this concept of “enshittification”.
I just wish it had a better name. ‘Enshittification’ sounds stupid.
Personally I’m not a fan of cussing in terms meant to be widespread. So my personal substitute, while wordier, is currently “corporate product worsening”
“Enterprise rot”
“Corporate decay”
Does that mean I should stop recommending people fedora with gnome?
I’m still confused about its future
After 3 years on Fedora, the distro that finally made me stop hopping, I moved to openSUSE when I installed a new SSD. I have no idea what the future holds, but I’m good with switching now when convenient rather than later.
so… how do you like openSuSE after 3 years of fedora?
Are people still using this closed-source-like distribution?
