I left Ubuntu when they sent all my dock search history to Amazon. But this time is different, should I leave Fedora considering how much it is developed by Red Hat?
I’ve actively defended this distribution and Red Hat for many years now and I’m deep in their technology but I want to avoid being a Devil’s Advocate.
EDIT: I decided to give it some more time, I’ll stay on Kinoite for now, if Red Hat’s IBMfication reaches Fedora, I’ll switch to Debian assuming we don’t have a high quality immutable replacement by then. I’ve been on /r/opensuse and read rbrownsuse’s posts enough times to know MicroOS KDE is NOT a good suggestion, their rebranding doesn’t clean up their history.
Absolutely. Debian is the only distribution that’s truly safe from a corporate takeover. Some people call their strict governance model onerous, I call it necessary.
Of the mainstream ones definitely. Otherwise there are some indepedent distros where that wouldn’t happen.
Here to second this! I highly respect the Fedora community and their distribution, it is awesome work and an awesome platform. Still, when I think long term, I want to run an OS w/o cooperate ties, because all Linux distributions with cooperate ties did shitty things against the community eventually. Your time is not free and life is short - so Debian is one of the few save technology investments you can make at this time IMHO.
