Sorry to break it to ya, but if you’re using Linux you’re swallowing RedHat code like a snake eating an alligator.
Plus, firewalld is GPL2 licensed, so does it really matter that the code came from RedHat? The whole point of that license is to ensure FOSS is healthy even though companies whose business practices you disagree with contribute to it.
A little, but keeping options open. My Gentoo and Void machines seem like they will survive a Redhat power grab but I’d have to figure out 4k playback elsewhere on my rpi if they decide to break things as that’s my current weakpoint.
I’m keeping an eye on BSD but feel there’s still a lot of potential in linux; musl, toybox & s6 are doing good work. If RedHat manage to break Gentoo everything is fucked and I need to flee to BSD but I don’t think they are capable of that yet.

I feel like it will be fine. RedHat hasn’t stopped or locked down upstream development so the rest of the ecosystem will be okay.
