They were bought by IBM a few years back, but even aside from that they’re a corporation and they care about making money above all else.

It looks like Red Hat is doing its damnedest to consolidate as much power for themselves within the Linux ecosystem.

I don’t think the incessant Fedora shilling is unrelated.

It seems like there isn’t much criticism of the company or their tactics, and I’m curious if any of you think that should change.

Also Fedora and “well-built” - it’s glossy and smooth-looking, but not “well-built”.

Example from experience: dnf requires more than 1G to do a system update. Try to run in on a minimal VPS and dnf will keep getting OOM killed.
