Ah, money. From another quick glance: I see.

I honestly would only shit in a Red Hat if I couldn't find a dirty portajohn so I really don't care. I do understand they are very important in Business (ha!ha!)

So is Ubuntu, which is only a side-step away from Debian. But, while I hate dpkg, at least Debian is ethically clean.

Not according to the Free Software Foundation.

Also, Red Hat contributes more GPL code than Debian does.

Redhat, for at least a decade, has focused on services, with which I already said I have no issue. I haven't seen or heard of anyone paying for Redhat just to get a base imagine with no support.

Services like stability, testing, compatibility, security, certification, and documentation?
