there's just that pesky IBM thing that's constantly hanging around in the back waiting to pull the rug you're standing on.
It's all open source. If they do that it will just get forked, I don't really see the issue.
keep telling yourself that. if it was 2006 I would say you're right, but 20 years of corporate neglect and abuse has caused many developers to age out and not really give a shit anymore.
young devs don't want to just "fork it", they want to make a better product. to sell it. to IBM (or entities like them).
so yeah. you keep trusting that IBM bear in the corner won't maul you when you take a nap.
I'll stick with docker, the solution that outright refused to bend a knee to the worse corporate slaver in modern history.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I have faith in the open-source community. So far that's turned out pretty well.
