Are the numbers real?

annual revenue of backing company:

ubuntu/debian: ca. 300m$
suse: ca. 700m$

That's astonishing

I fully support the choice of fedora with bootc. It's an amazing technology. But it's somewhat sad that it's not a European linux base for European institutions.

Edit: Nunbers for suse are correct: ARR FY 664.9

Ubuntu is also correct

Jep, SUSE is quite big. Ubuntu is only more popular among private users

I guess suse has big profitable gov contracts
