Redis is trying to take over the all of the OSS Redis libraries

I suspect Redis is going to pull in the various popular Redis libraries under their umbrella and make them incompatible with Valkey. It seems like a defensive move against Valkey.

If I was in charge of any of these libraries, I would replace any mention of Redis with Valkey and move on.

And what prevents valkey devs from maintaining their compatibility layer to accommodate those changes?

Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty or something.

Sure. You can do that. But the community needs a single standard. Open standard that all in-memory data stores like Redis, ValKey, DragonflyDB, KeyDB, Kvrocks will support. Otherwise you will end up in a vendor lock.

This would be in the interests of the current market leader though - eg. Redis.
