It may be okay, Redhat has been fine under IBM. I'm just pessimistic by nature, I'm not disappointed that often, and delightfully surprised sometimes, if infrequently. Just because you have a pessimistic outlook on life doesn't mean you can't enjoy it, I think it's more of a Buddhist (some forms anyway) way of expecting suffering and delighting in the joy of life nonetheless.


The Red Hat acquisition was two years ago. On the timeframe or "corporate parent ruins acquired", it's still the short term, so I don't think we can call a verdict at this point.


In that time, Red Hat has:

1. Killed the sole reason why people use CentOS. 2. Has so tightly integrated systemd and NetworkManager to Fedora that it's essentially unusable for server environments.

Sure, Red Hat has been fine.


Didn't they end CentOS and ruin a bunch of peoples plans?
