Red Hat Enterprise Linux is fairly popular at the company I work for and they've been an IBM acquisition since 2019.

And they (we, I should say, I work at Red Hat, but not in RHEL) as a company improved profits 10% after adjustment for inflation.

How is Red Hat doing with all they layoffs around anyway? I'd imagine they would be fairly resilient.

None announced as yet. Definitely changes and "belt tightening", and other optimizations (most people had assumed that bonuses were automatic and 100%, but they will be more tightly focused on individual performance now).
