When Red Hat pulled the plug on CentOS and pivoted to CentOS Stream, the entire sysadmin community collectively lost their minds. This protest sign captures that rage perfectly—you literally can't spell "hatred" without "Red Hat."
For context: CentOS was the free, community-supported version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux that powered half the internet's servers. Then Red Hat decided to kill it off in favor of CentOS Stream (a rolling release that's more of a beta testing ground for RHEL). Thousands of production servers suddenly needed migration plans, and DevOps teams everywhere added "find CentOS alternative" to their 2021 roadmaps.
The wordplay here is chef's kiss—taking your corporate betrayal to the streets with a sign that's both clever and seething with justified anger. Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux thank you for your service, angry sign person.
