I tried Tumbleweed for a while but ended up going back to Fedora. Super polished while still fast moving.

Just FYI “Software” in that agreement specifically refers to Red Hat branded software, so it isn’t quite as clear cut if you debrand it before redistributing it.

Running my own SearX instance, fetching from multiple different sites.

Fedora on the desktop. I got my start on Red Hat Linux so I’ve stuck with it since.

For servers I use Debian. Lightweight, widely used, and gets the job done.

You can also run setenforce 0 to temporarily disable SELinux and rule that out.

Did you try parsing journalctl over SSH and check to see if there were any PAM or SELinux errors?

We’ve reached the end of the VC-funded golden age where they are all now demanding a return on their investment, hence why the screws are now all getting tightened.
