Not Power Profiles Daemon…
GNOME getting affected is insanely bad. Fuck IBM, glad that ThinkPad was bought by Lenovo. ThinkPad under IBM would have become worse than Alienware.
KDE will return to its rightful throne.
I doubt it will. KDE needs to entirely change its vision of it being this mixed bag of customisation supremacy, and instead forego some of it to become performance and UX oriented like GNOME. KDE needs to do a 180 flip, and the community will tear it one apart if it “becomes the devil” or whatever nonsense the anti-GNOME zealots drum up.
What disgusts me the most about Red Hat is their fake focus on “the open source community.” The fact is, the “community” is nothing more to them than free labor. They only seek out and merge changes and fixes that appeal to their enterprise customers. Fuck them, they’re getting paid, so let them do it themselves IMO.
FUD
You can disagree with the comment above, but it’s not “FUD”, it’s just criticism.
It’s FUD, redhat is a major contributor paying developers. It’s a sad news but it’s crazy to say redhat just profits free contributors.
Ok, so you don’t know what FUD means.
Does that mean I should stop recommending people fedora with gnome?
I’m still confused about its future
openSUSE will welcome you and your friends :)
Sadly, this move by Red Hat is not unexpected. Personally, I do not recommend any Red Hat related distros, including clones. This breaks my heart since my first Linux experience was Red Hat Halloween, but the company is just taking ugly turn after ugly turn.
Settle down Nancy. There’s hundreds of linux distributions currently, some targeted towards desktop/gaming, and some targeted to the server and enterprise spaces. RedHat has always been the latter.
Let’s not get all Shakespearean dramatic about it, ok?
I mean RH is a big contributor to open source in general. I do not look forward to how they are behaving lately.
Exactly, and they have been for years. How fucking entitled do people need to be to advocate for “free and open source” software and then turn around and removed and moan when a corporate entity decides to shift focus to something that doesn’t benefit them directly?
