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?

It sounds like that’s just part of the game if you want to be considered “official”.

I think it’s OK for them to try and sell extras, but I do agree that it shouldn’t be the first thing on the downloads page. At least put the paid and free options side by side, then have the lite version down below that.

Pop OS is my recommendation for new users who want to play games, especially those with Nvidia GPUs.

Good write up.

Does it require a paid subscription? You can have a free developer account. I didn’t see anything in the Red Hat post besides it being available through the customer portal, which you have access to with a free account.

It’s a complete non-issue. Sensationalist headlines are so easy to make about this.

Anybody who has a FREE developer account can access the source code.
