Linux, more and more, is living and dying by the whims of corporate fucks.

Might as well just use Windows nowadays.

RHEL has wormed their way into every corner of the Linux ecosystem, or damn near every corner and it is starting to show. Doesn't take a schizo to know how or why.

Helps that they have now successfully spun the discussion around systemd into one where proponents are normal and sane, and anyone that questions it are freaks that have something to hide.

I've worked in a corpo and it's more or less like this.
>tomorrow is the release date
>today it was "discovered" some code needs to be security checked
>there's a secure code guideline to follow to replace vulnerable functions to safe ones, check memory management etc.
>there is no time to really do this
>at the end of the day the green light is given to release anyway

With such corporate "process" not even memory safe languages will make software not have security issues. More than the language itself, the problem really is on the human side of things.

>there is no time for this bullshit because if we lose this customer then there won't be any customers (thanks, monopoly)

>"fix will be arriving soon"
it's so fucking tiresome
