christ the IBM acquisition is turning out to be the WORST timeline.
- Redhat kneecaps centos because some mid manager was worried he might not get this years bonus
- Redhat kneecaps Ansible by making ansible-core and forcing everyone to re-install community plugins they were using from EPEL, or buy the shiny Redhat version of ansible.
- Redhat decides to turn Ceph into yet another garbage storage product with the same exorbitant support fees and contract payments that were the original motivation for an open source storage solution in the first place.
All this is being done under the guise that "oh its not proprietary, its enterprise grade now!" like the very same devsecops engineers and SRE's who made this shit work in the first place arent wholly capable of running it in production without forking over most of their $round of investment to the same company that turned softlayer into a swirling vortex of DDoS gangs spam relays and double extortion rings.
to date it feels like all IBM wants to do with Redhat is turn it into IBM so if thtas all these juggernaut dinosaurs can do im quietly waiting to see Microsoft acquire Ubuntu and quietly turn it into a teams plugin the same way they acquired github and turned it into an outage response simulator for developers.
