To be fair to the hoppers, though, I think “I don’t want a distro so bound to US law” is a perfectly good reason to hop and isn’t something I thought about much before. It’ll be interesting seeing how this impacts other distros and what it says about their legal situations. Once that and the plan for workarounds are clear, I’ll maybe then consider it. But those are mostly ideological concerns…I dealt with the codec situation on late 2000s Linux, I can deal with this, lol.
It’s unclear if they’ll distribute it, as with how it currently works that would require them distributing mesa in its entirety and they don’t seem interested. Could change though.

They will probably just follow along? All big ones won’t risky it, and small ones have no rescue as well
