I wonder what would happen if Red Hat took the opportunity to start advertising anti-Windows-Wokeness on X and TruthSocial and other fascsocial media. Probably a stupid business move because not like they'd actually adopt it but would be funny to watch.
Wasn't that almost what happened with Bryan Lunduke? AFAIK, dude took a hard turn to the right after years of decent Linux-related advocacy and then nuked his social media accounts and tried to claim the opposite. Not sure where he's at now, but it was pretty strange.
Ah yes, Bryan Lunduke was a very well known name in Linux circles years ago. His Linux e-books still can be had.
It's not like far right Linux guys are unheard of.
It's just that they tend to be "literally who's" instead of anyone relevant to any project people care about.
If Red Hat wasn't owned by IBM, I'd maybe give a flying fuck about being amused.

Something like that already exists, look up Freedom Phone
