The "Red Hat" brand is being dissolved further today. "Today the 'badge' says IBM," Thomas Wilson said. "The team is still here. The work continues. And I'm excited about what comes next."
But the role changed, there's lots of slop dross or filler, and everybody at IBM knows what PIPs and RA come next. The vast majority of redhat.com blog posts sell slop, not Linux. It helps inflate the share price without accomplishing anything of substance. It's "fake work". It cheats the shareholders.
Red Hat's "way" or "culture" or "open source org" is going away step by step. Some people altogether quit today or yesterday, not only in Red Hat but also Nordcloud. Some receive money to leave 'voluntarily'.
The quantum vaporware teams are going "the way of the Kyndryl" via Anderon. IBM is imploding 'voluntarily'.
