12/09/2021, 3:17 AMAh nice. Very cool.

12/09/2021, 3:18 AMWell so red hat stopped making centos. So we’re basically doing the same thing. Except trying to build the community around it as well. There are some others doing the same but they manipulated the press and stuff and flat out lied to people, so a lot of fighting FUD

12/09/2021, 3:21 AMGlad you're getting a community, some concepts were neat in fedora but never made it into mainstream. It felt disjointed at best

12/09/2021, 3:22 AMHonestly the early days of fedora were great and I was there and worked on it for almost 10 years at Res Hat but then when Red Hat Corporate started taking more direct control of things and dictating rather than listening, that's when I left

12/09/2021, 3:26 AMIt’s so funny because I actually mentioned gentle in a tweet yesterday

12/09/2021, 3:28 AMAs for red hat, things change - a new company will get the added benefit of having you when red hat will have lost you
