I use Fedora as my main distro and was already playing with the idea of switching to another one because of RedHats (or IBMs) decision to partially close the source code.

This made my decision, I will abonden Fedora. Which is sad because the OS is overall a great distro and runs stable (especially with Sway) but the decisions regarding RedHat products just go in a very wrong direction...

But isn't Fedora community still independent of redhat, albeit having a close relationship?

If I remember correctly they get most of the funding from RedHat and are therefore kind of dependend on RH. But I do not know the exact dependencies of the project.

I know what you mean and I understand your concern about the tie between Fedora and RedHat corp

For me I just don't feel worried about the situation, plus I am biased because I enjoy Fedora, podman and Ansible way too much.

All the best to your Distro hopping
