    I thought RedHat was the big evil, but Canonical seems to become what Microsoft already is, with their EEE practice.

        I also believe community distros are the way to go. Whether it is Debian, Arch or NixOS.

      It was funny seeing people say they’re going to leave RH for Canonical.

      Like okay. RH uses the GPL like Stallman intended, and people run to Canonical who make as much of their stuff as proprietary as possible.

            “contributor license agreement” is such a broad term, a CLA is not bad in all cases. There are plenty of CLAs that are not about one-way proprietarization of software. Examples of OK CLAs are “You agree that you actually have the right to contribute code” or “If you don’t specifically attach add a license header, the MIT license is being used”.

            Obviously companies like Canonical use the term CLA to make their practices look less shady that it actually is.

      Despite their recent crappy moves, Red Hat ist still the largest FOSS contributor.

    Very sad. LXC/D is pretty good system level container, much safer/isolated than docker/podman and lighter than VMs

        It’s packaged in non-Ubuntu distros (not that there’s anything wrong with just using lxc)

    I’m thinking about getting into tinfoil hat manufacturing cause they’re about to sell out.

    This is why Snaps need to be opposed across the linux ecosystem. When Canonical gets control, they are no different to other anti-open-source companies in how they want exclusive ownership and control over things that are fundamentally not theirs!
