Nobody dictates anything. The provider has its good reasons, whatever it is. And Fedora has its own reasons. As I said, it’s just our decision: how many users do we want to leave behind. Or can we think of a good solution and find the strength to organize it so that we don't lose any users or as few as possible. It's our problem, not anyone else's. Or: how much do we care about our users? And how connected do we feel to our users? _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
