Red Hat / Fedora drama?
Red Hat / Fedora drama?
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?
You're viewing a single thread.
I get their POV. Want stability? Then pay, because that's mostly doable for those who actually need the stability. Fedora is stable enough for others imo, and if that's a bit too fast for you, maybe try CentOS Stream. Afaik that's a bit slower than Fedora, but almost right before RHEL in terms of update/change timelines.
I'm in this camp as well - I personally don't think that the Fedora distro will see much of an impact. From what I can tell, it's still in their best interest to ensure that Fedora receives the community support that it always has. That said, like I mentioned in the OP, I get why they made this move for the company.
We'll just have to wait and see whether their Fedora support will continue. The great thing about Linux is the choice, though. So if there ever comes a time where Fedora's no longer pro consumer, there's always Arch and Debian.
