First--I don't lie. I tell the truth as much as I am able.
Second, all of your links refer to opinions of people, who likely never researched the topic well enough. Red Hat did make the downloads difficult, and hid the links pretty well--but they were there.
Third, you are the one being dishonest--or at least disingenuous. The earliest link you listed was 2005--less than 20 years ago. By that time, I was already on Fedora full time. I will amend my statement, though, to about ~25ish years. Getting old sucks, and time moves by quicker than I realize.
Right, LOL!
