I’m curious about what you think on how it will affect the Linux community and distros (especially RHEL based distros like Fedora or Rocky).

I guess we’re in a bit of a waiting game then. Too much stuff is tied to RHEL to easily switch for us, but TBH we’re starting to see more people wanting Ubuntu (ugg) / debian because ML seems to be there. Also most commercial software I’ve seen tends to offer .deb and .rpm or just .deb actually so more and more it’s RHEL that isn’t packaged for - and that’s been for years now.
It is a bit unfortunate (or deliberate) that this happens to close to the end of support of RHEL7 which means a lot of projects are probably in the process of switching to a newer RHEL or need to decide very soon.
