I’m curious about what you think on how it will affect the Linux community and distros (especially RHEL based distros like Fedora or Rocky).

  • Definitely the last part, IMHO. Fedora’s governance is far more dispersed than just IBM/RedHat. Its where a lot of Linux leaders go to do their development work. Keep an eye though on the decisions made within the Fedora project and if you don’t like them, leave for something like tumbleweed.
