@nixCraft RHEL's "enterprises market share" <> RHEL clones market share.

Organizations who pay for RHEL services do that for reasons that aren't affected by the new Suse-Oracle alliance. The source-behind-a-paywall thing won't affect them since they are inside the paywall. Tough for me to see a corporate board risking swapping RHEL out for ideological purity reasons.

@Corb_The_Lesser @nixCraft let's be honest, the only reason to use rhel is software that's only certified for or based on it. Oracle was actually a big part of that.
