RedHat's "contributions" over the last 20 years: Making XFS the default rather than ext4, removing Btrfs, introducing Systemd, PulseAudio, PipeWire, DBus, Wayland, Podman, corporate telemetry reporting, dropping 32-bit and fbcon. Aka, all the annoying shit we don't like that makes Linux into an incompatible, monolithic, "opinionated", corporatized operating system. And let's not forget how they closed their source code.
Well before IBM acquired them, RedHat has been slowly corrupting and subverting the enti
What pisses me off is that the entire justification for wasting 15 years to develop a "replacement" for X11 ended up being obsoleted by technologies that could easily have been foreseen in 2010. cgroups in Linux means every application can be given its own authentication token for the X server, allowing X clients to be given application-by-application security. No need to send everything to everything any more. And full backward compatibility is possible. All that's needed is for the Xorg team to implement
The word has been so abused that I become suspicious every time I hear it.
Especially now that Fedora is IBM.
Indeed. And when the "innovation" is "Weyland on Gnome". Seriously, I do not use either and I do not plan to. I just want my systems to work.
