    Wasn’t Red Hat just complaining that Alma and Rocky didn’t add value because they weren’t submitting fixes upstream?

      Its funny how podcasters and commenters seem to have taken Redhat’s spin about “contributing value to the community” seriously, while to the rest of us the whole thing was obviously only about money (same as all the follow-ups from other parties… I would say “including Alma” but that would probably deserve its separate debate).

      — “we don’t like people ripping off our work without any added value”

      — “Here, let me push this to your staging environment, totally breaking your quality process”

      — “No”

      — “Well, what the hell do you want broo?”

      I don’t think they have ever hidden the fact this is about money. I don’t like the fact this is about money, but the fact that others were cloning and selling their efforts for a cheaper price is awful.

    Alma should use this as advantage for them. Now market it as “Alma Linux is more secure than RHEL”.

    As someone interviewing for Canonical’s Security team (they make you do like 10 interviews, I’m like 5 deep over 3 weeks), I cannot imagine anyone security-minded writing that comment. It either:

    • Comes from higher up
    • Michal doesn’t think security is important

      Can you prove that your joining Canonical (picture proof), as you know, people can be anything in the internet while they’re in their parent’s basement.

      If you are, what type of interview questions do they ask?
