Which is to be expected after all communities are made up of people
*volunteering their free time* to the community and that time is not
being volunteer to benefit Red Hat but Fedora but ofcourse Red Hat does
what it can to misuse that contributed time to their own benefits + I
dont see how that's related to you claiming that Red Hat developers are
resources available to the community.
As an academic user I see no problems engaging with Redhat explicitly.
Many university setups are such that on the server and centrally
managed infrastructure we have RHEL or Centos, and individual user
laptops/desktops can be on random operating systems including Fedora.
So I see it a net positive if there is some cross-talk between Fedora
and RHEL, especially if that influences the latter in a useful way.
