    If i'm not mistaken I don't think that Fedora will be affected because Fedora is upstream from RHEL. Now distros such as Alma, Rocky, and EuroLinux may be affected because they are downstream from RHEL. But I can be wrong.

  • Seems like IBM is going to make RHEL closed source. What's everyone's opinion about the move? I feel RHEL is now the evil villain distro of the community.

    You can put Ubuntu on a 15 year old laptop, but it will be extremely slow. Lubuntu or Xubuntu would better suit the laptop.

    I'm not saying that there aren't alternatives to Xorg, or that Xorg is the greatest thing to come out of the 80s. Matter of fact, Mate was created because Gnome 3 was everything that no one wanted and a dev decided to create his own that looked and felt like Gnome 2. What I'm saying is that Xorg will never truly go extinct because someone will write software that supports xorg some form or fashion.

    There's going to be migration to Wayland at some point. TheLinuxCast made a great video on Youtube discussig this and the death of Xorg. However, with more distros going to Wayland, I don't think that Xorg is going to die out, especially when it comes to the BSD side of things.
