    Instead of trying to tear down things that work, try building up the distros that don’t.

      But that sounds like work. It’s a lot easier to shit on other people’s volunteer efforts than to actually contribute anything constructive yourself.

      You need to understand that Red Hat/Fedora regards the Linux Community as “free loaders”. That’s how they designed described anyone wanting access to Red Hat Server source code.

      That’s what they think of you and me and all the great developers who make a lot of the software we use, often in their free time and at no cost.

      Most of the distros and software you use on Linux is made and maintained by people who are not paid but do it for the love of Libre open source freedom loving computing for all.

      That is the FOSS way. Red Hat/Fedora do not share this view. They see us all as free loaders.

      If all the great Devs who contribute so much to GNU/Linux had that attitude, you’d literally have no free distro or apps.

      That means no poor third world person would ever have access to an operating system or pc. Only us well off people in the developed world. That’s anti FOSS.

      Don’t support ass hats like Red Hat/Fedora who stand against that.

      And now we see Canonical also being ass hats but only by including telemetry in Ubuntu, but forcing snaps on end users, blocking flatpak out of the box (you can still install it yourself but newbies won’t know this) and they are aiming to eventually make Ubuntu snap only. Not to mention they worked with Microsoft to make “Linux subsystem for Windows” which is a real insult to Linux and FOSS.

      Use Debian and other Community based distros which have zero corporate funding or involvement and are 100% by the people for the people
