I see a lot of posts about Redhat for putting their code base behind a paywall. I’ve only been using Linux as my main desktop OS for a couple of years now. Someone recommended Fedora at the time, and I’ve been happy with it. I had previously tried PopOS, Mint, and Ubuntu, but none of them convinced me to switch from Windows full time until I tried again with Fedora.
How will what Redhat is doing affect Fedora for the home user? Should I start considering something else?
Edit: thanks for all of the responses! Sticking with fedora for now it is.
Fedora is designed as a relatively stable testing ground for widespread use. It is incredibly unlikely that they'd ever even want to restrict its distribution, and nobody is signing any contracts with Fedora, so they'd have no leverage to stop us from doing it even if they did want to.
Long term who knows what stupid things Redhat might try to get up to, and even if they don't make any catastrophic decisions the whole project could potentially start to drift away from the rest of Linux if they keep making smaller divisive decisions, but that's both unlikely, and in the far distant future if it ever does happen. For the more foreseeable future there is absolutely nothing to worry about with Fedora, other than possibly ethical concerns that you're helping to bug test for the makers RHEL, if you care about that.
