The mass exodus from RH has been massively overstated. It's mostly a bunch of Redditors and Lemmings saying "omg I'll never use RHEL now, even though I never have", but in reality, they've not seen an exodus.

I do think their actions have a good chance of causing damage in the long term, though.

Maybe, but our data center people decided to switched to SUSE so some places definitely ditched RHEL.

How did that work out? We used sles in the past (moved to rhel6). Management of larger environments has been easier with rhel, but we've slowly been decoupling from redhat-isms. Satellite is just doing drm -the only thing that gives us grief- and repos now.
