Maybe, but if, based on one loud mouth in a Lemmy thread I began a whole intensive programme of de-redhatting my life, that would be a bit dumb ;-)
But veering a little more away from using Redhat or Fedora, seems a proportionate response to finally feeling there really is bad faith shilling and genuine red flags. My inflammatory language was perhaps just an emotional expression of that.
And that was part of the controversy, wasn't it? And part of why, if vague memory serves, Debian resisted it at first. Perhaps your comment vindicates them!
Sounds like a pretty sensible policy :) Thanks
What happened to the Internet? Reasonable people everywhere.
Yes, I think that the skepticism towards systemd was deserved even if we have to acknowledge that it also brought improvements in some areas.
I also concede that actively supporting a distro like Debian is important for the role they play in the ecosystem, regardless of the software overlap with other distros.
I too was oversimplifying obviously.
Thank you for the reply.
