Usage data is important for developers to know how people use their software, so I’m okay with it. But given Red Hat’s recent direction, I’m not sure I trust them to slowly increase the data being collected.

But I don’t use Fedora and I’ve already moved off Red Hat/CentOS, so I don’t have a horse in this race ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Usage data is a crutch, effective developers can make good software with zero telemetry and did so for several decades.

Telemetry is important for desktop developers, you can negate it but it’s a fact. Most users do not know what is GitLab

I guess it’s more accurate to say that people know what GitLab is but don’t know/aren’t willing to troubleshoot and submit quality bug reports.

At work, many Linux user, they may know gitlab but not GNOME one.
