      But Oracle? How are they better in any way? RedHat still writes FOSS software. Oracle just profited off it being easy for RHEL customers to migrate to Oracle Linux. They do add on top of RHEL, but they could built a distro themselves too.

      This article reads to me like satire from Oracle.

      PS: I don’t like what RH done either.

        IMHO Redhat cloud was just as proprietary as oracle’s. Sure, Redhat was one of (if not the) the greatest contributor to open source, but since acquired by IBM it seems the momentum is going down (I don’t have any data on this, only a few articles like this I’ve reaad)

      IBM

      Everyone keeps saying redhat this, redhat that as if they’re talking of an independent entity. IBM bought redhat, and probably to run it into the ground too. Fuck IBM.

      By the way, I still don’t believe oracle’s “commitment” to open source, but that writing was a cool slap to IBM’s face.
