"2024 is the year corporate died"

"...it's totally different when you build your product under an open source license, foster a community of users who then build their own businesses on top of that software, then yoink the license when your revenue is affected.

That's called a bait-and-switch."

@davidbisset @geerlingguy would be nice to mention how billion dollar companies like AWS (specifically) is one of the main reasons for this state of affairs.

@fredposner @davidbisset later in the post: "People asked what Red Hat could do to get me interested in Enterprise Linux again. It's simple: stop treating people who don't bring revenue to the table like garbage. Freeloaders are part of open source—whether they're running homelab or a competing business."
