Centos cancelled for the benefit of Redhat and detriment of many of its users.
Kernel changes that exclude users of 10year+ older hardware.
Corporate-backed campaign to discredit ethos leaders and defenders of user rights and veteran contributors - Redhat turning back on FSF and Richard Stallman, OSI banning Eric Raymond.
Ubuntu and Redhat losing interest in needs of desktop and small business users, putting most efforts into features for big cloud operations.
User group events degraded / cancelled.
Yeah Debian is still keeping mostly pro-user but they are not the leader in the cutting edge of development. Distributions innovating more do exist, but they are very small part of the Linux world. Most of it is Redhat, Ubuntu and hardware vendors.
Systemd, GNOME, GPU drivers are very windowsey; tightly coupled big software that one is discouraged to study and improve, almost as bad as their closed source counterparts on Windows.
