Sounds like it was. From the article:

Update 07:45 UTC: We’ve heard from workers at EVGA Spain “it’s just another day at the office”. So maybe it was only Kingpin/the OC team in TW that has resigned, or the whole story is completely untrue.

Update 16:41 UTC: We just received the following statement from EVGA:

We saw those message and they are rumors.
Our Taiwan office is still operating and Kingpin is still with EVGA.
EVGA is still doing business and supporting its customers.
Thanks for reaching out

I’m surprised the number isn’t higher than that tbh.

I felt Reddit’s quality started going downhill around 2021, which is not long after they introduced the official app and started allowing Google logins.

EDIT: Looks like the official app’s been around longer than I thought. :O

Unless you happen to use Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, or Oracle Linux. It doesn’t affect Debian, or Ubuntu, or openSUSE, or Arch, or anybody else.

So, stupid question, but would Fedora be affected at all? I know that’s related to Red Hat, but I’m guessing it’s not affected since it’s not based on RHEL.

It’s not a question of legality really, but more one of an ethical nature. It sort of depends on you, as to whether or not you’re bothered by RedHat doing this or not.

I’d say I’m bothered by it, but there’s not really anything I can do about it. I’m disappointed the GPL doesn’t have stricter rules regarding the distribution of source code though. I feel like it kinda defeats the purpose if sources aren’t freely available to anyone who wants to use them.

Fuck Meta. We need to vehemently oppose their presence in the Fediverse.
