    By the way, if you are a Linux developer who disagrees with IBM’s actions and you believe in Linux freedom the way we do, we are hiring.

    Even ORACLE is calling out Red Hat.

    Who’s next, Apple?

    Currently testing Debian in a VM, I have lots of files so I need to set everything straight before I switch.

    This is hilarious considering one of the main reasons IBM is clamping down on RHEL is because they are literally taking RHEL, changed the stickers to “Oracle” and calls it a day to sell their own propietary shit. Of course they are against RedHat closing down RHEL, they need it to compile Oracle Linux.

    I don’t like what RedHat is doing (or IBM, however you want to see it) but cheering for Oracle on this particular issue is just wrong

      What I don’t understand is: who is using oracle linux? Never heard of a single person or company using it?

      One must be really far from linux to choose oracle linux among hundreds of available distros

        It would be corporate clients that are already all on Oracle for their careers. I’ve met guys that have built their entire career on Oracle and if you suggest any other software they’ll try to politically assassinate you. Some people just care about money not the work they do.
