IBM has completely taken over internally. Red Hat’s logo is being paraded around to keep people complacent due to their former reputation.
minus-squareieatpillowtags@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up10·8 months agoI think it’s a cop out to blame any of this on IBM as these kinds of changes started before the acquisition. I also don’t know who you mean when you say the people are gone as most of the executive leadership have been with the company for a decade or two. I guess I was sad when they killed shadowman but that was before IBM too!
