> Rocky is doing something no different than what RH is doing

Count the contributors to Rocky and RHEL. Then tell me how they can be "doing the same thing".

Taking open source code, some large part of which wasn’t authored by them, and bundling it for others? Same thing, with one notable difference: one of them is trying to extort everyone into paying for code they themselves got, in part or in whole, for free.

RH didn’t write all of linux, but they’re trying to put a price on it like they have.
