From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

As a Fedora user, I don't understand why you care this much about RHEL? I agree the decision is very bad, but Fedora is downstream from RHEL and
If you really prefer using Fedora, I think the paywalling of RHEL's sourcr code has little to no affect on you.
You make good points. My jumping off the Fedora ship was a knee-jerk reaction to the RHEL doofusry, and not one based completely on rational thought, sadly. And now I've been hopping around spending more time researching stuff and trying things out than getting things done lol.
So yeah. I might just go back to Fedora...
Yeah, I almost distrohopped for the same reason!
Even if you do go back to Fedora, you're a more experienced user than you were before.
