Yeah I agree, the community will be the ones who suffer from this.

RHEL have specifically mentioned Rocky here…

Since Rocky provides support (for basically a rhel build), I would think Rocky are definitely on the radar.

I agree, I think it would have been better if Rhel just came clean with the real facts instead of pussy footing around it. I am on board with keeping open source open, but if Rocky is undercutting rhel for support with basically a red hat product, it changes the dynamic a lot.

Also, if Rocky is doing this, then it will be rocky’s fault that this clone system falls apart. Alma I believe is not for profit 1:1 and far more ethical.
