      Without RedHat, we wouldnt have Linux in the US governments, no SELinux, no Android security.

      I think there is worse than companies selling Linux

        I’ll thank them when they stop remaking perfectly fine utilities over minor issues then doing a shitty job with compatibility.

          Example?

          Podman, virt-manager, toolbx, tuned are the software I know. I could agree on a few that redoing some is bad

          Yeah, that’s definitely worse than all the benefits they mentioned. 🙄

        I generally agree with you, but wasn’t SELinux primarily the NSA and Tresys? I know it’s a primarily Red Hat thing now, but I think it would have existed in some form without them.

        It is entirely possible I’m misinformed.
