I’m curious about what you think on how it will affect the Linux community and distros (especially RHEL based distros like Fedora or Rocky).

    Have they given a reason? The blog post doesn’t list one.

      Reduce effort. They say there’s duplication between hosting RHEL and Centos, so they’ll just do Centos. Since Redhat becomes Centos anyway it seems neither here nor there.

      I saw in a comment yesterday this is about distros that are “bug for bug” compatible with RHEL. They aren’t contributing upstream while benefiting from all of Red Hat’s work.
