An exceptionally well explained rant that I find myself in total agreement with.

    All the good things you said about Redhat should be in past tense. IBM recently laid off tons of Redhat employees, including the Fedora team lead! Redhat is no longer an organization in any real sense. It is only the name of a product now. It’s as meaningful as IBM’s “Watson”. They are only marketing terms.

    Don’t expect much investment or technical innovation out of Redhat/IBM going forward. IBM is always going to put its short term (short sighted) self interest ahead of everything else.

      The layoff was less than 4% and only in administrative positions.
