    I’m excited to see what the outcome of SUSE forking RHEL will be.

    • Will IBM backtrack?
    • Will the SUSE RHEL fork stay separate from SLES?
    • Will SLES move directly upstream or downstream from the RHEL fork?
    • Will this inspire other big wigs (Microsoft?) to start work on their own RHEL equivalent distributions?

      Really hoping that the enshitification of these various things, further enshitification in the case of Twitter, brings about a really fun “find out” period.

      Sadly I think it will get worse in the case of RHEL. I can see IBM locking down access to many of their products to AIX, RHEL, and in many instances Windows. Currently, GPFS, something I work with a lot, supports Debian and Ubuntu (I think). It would not surprise me to see that go away.
