I recently started using a fedora based distro. Specifically bazzite which is one of the read only root distros and a drop in replacement for steam os on deck and PC. In the grand scheme of things I don't really see the read hat stuff changing much. Canonical does shit the community at large doesn't like too but people keep using Ubuntu and it's deranged and deformed babies. I mainly used arch(, btw) for a long time but I really don't have any attachments to any particular distro and can switch at any time, like I have recently for consistency between my main computers and steam deck.

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.

Their product offering are worthless to me now than before.
No matter how tempting, I wouldn't use Fedora since it ships with opt-out telemetry.
Red Hat has a right to shoot itself in the foot as many times as it wants. Ubuntu, OpenSUSE and Oracle will gladly take over their business without skipping a beat.

Stopping support to competitors is reasonable (quite rude to give short notice), on the other hand, violating the GLP license is unacceptable. Red had has definitely lost my trust.
