Raphael is blindly ignoring that I’ve literally said I don’t support RedHat closing access to their sources and that I’m in here applauding Alma for moving away from their dependence on a greedy corporation. Somehow my acknowledging that enterprise support costs money to provide, and that the resources to develop and distribute FOSS aren’t free, means to him that I’m just blindly opposed to FOSS and that I’m pro-corporation.
In this thread I’ve said don’t use RedHat because they’re being dickbags, also maybe don’t use clones of RHEL because they then see you as a customer who isn’t paying them, and also if you need enterprise support it costs money so pay for it (because it also pays for the FOSS projects that these companies foster and contribute to).
Please link/quote to me defending what RedHat is doing with access to their source repos. I’ve said repeatedly in this thread (and in your other satire s/RedHat/Linux/) post that we should all stop using RedHat and stop creating a market for Red Hat as the de facto standard, because I do not support what they’re doing with access to their source repos.

Your argument boils down to “It can’t be helped”.

So what is it that I’m saying can’t be helped?
You say this and then you go on a large rant in the next post effectively defending Red Hat. You may be afflicted by Multiple Personality Disorder.
