Investment reinforces SUSE’s commitment to innovate and support SUSE Linux Enterprise distributions and related open source projects
SUSE plans to contribute its code to an open source foundation
Idk, one is investing in keep an decent open source RHEL compatible and the other is the opposite maybe they are not literally the same. You are traveling in a dangerous zone of the “if”. You can conjecture anything in the “if” zone
Oracle, IBM, Microsoft. It’s called market precedent. What’s to prevent a major corporation owned by a venture capital company to turn around and do the same thing years down the line? What to prevent them from making this “open source community” beholden to members of the board from said corporation, similar to Fedora?
“Idk man”. Conjecture can be tempered by experience. Remember that.
Sorry about that but Oracle, IBM, Microsoft, and other gigantic corpo are already the biggest contributors to the kernel, key projects like wayland and gcc are maintained almost entirely by red hat (now IBM) so we are already in this situation. Although thanks to amazing maintainers we still have these beautiful community distros: Mint, Arch, and Debian Linux, if you don´t need any fancy support these ones already give you all you need.
Don’t get me wrong I hate what Red Hat did, but Suse is offering an alternative for everyone that was using RHEL without official support and so what? If you need a big company support, accept with happiness what Suse had to offer. If you don´t Debian, was and will be always there for your servers.

Also, you never answered my question. You merely dismissed it.
