Incredible, someone at Red Hat is apparently reading my toots and slowly scrubbing their website of references to their “compressing the kill cycle” project. Here’s the file they don’t want you to read: web.archive.org/web/20260402… p.s. if you work at Red Hat and have inside info on what’s going on, my Signal is “@legoktm.12345” - happy to protect you.
Disgusting. For those unaware, IBM has acquired Red Hat a few years back (they are heavily involved in Linux development and related technologies). “Technology is apolitical” bros can bite me.
Oh and when I say "“i have been saying” I mean since the early 2000s btw.
