I don't know techrights, and reading about them it does seem as if they have a very strong pro-FOSS, adversarial (to put it nicely) bent. So thank you for educating me there!

Reading the post closer, and looking at their other posts, I don't think this is a blog I'd personally put a lot of trust in as a valuable resource. Maybe fun to read, but yeah. Not super trustable.

> "Today the "badge" says IBM,"

Sure, people are getting moved around.

> But the role changed, there's lots of slop ("hey hi") dross or filler

I'm not sure what "hey hi" means, or filler.

> and everybody at IBM knows what PIPs and RA come next

I've been through multiple "silent" and "loud" IBM layoffs. This is 100% true.

> It's not hard to see that the vast majority of redhat.com blog posts sell slop, not Linux. It helps inflate the share price without accomplishing anything of substance.

I don't really think this is true. I feel like as long as I've read Red Hat's blog posts (less frequently now) they've been high quality.

> It's "fake work", just like slop. It cheats the shareholders, but for how much longer?

Based on the last statement, this too seems like it's at best an exaggeration.

> Red Hat's "way" or "culture" or "open source org" is going away, step by step (one step at a time), and some people altogether quit today (or yesterday), not only in Red Hat but also Nordcloud. Some receive money to leave 'voluntarily'.

This is 100% true. When I joined, people told me I was joining a different Red Hat, and the company was vastly different when I left over a decade later.

> The quantum (vaporware) teams are going "the way of the Kyndryl" via Anderon.

I'm not following quantum stuff closely, so I can't judge this, but based on the crappy performance of the Kyndryl stock I got from the spinoff, I sure hope that .. quantum is getting spun off? I don't know, this seems a little wackadoo.

> IBM is imploding 'creatively'.

Gibberish.

After reading it line by line closely and looking at my reaction .. yeah this is a rag of a blog. :D thanks again for knocking some sense into me!

Red Hat being phased out of existence?
