I have one Ubuntu Pro server and it has not received the fix yet. Fedora would have been preferable but that is "not supported" and I had to have Ubuntu.

RedHat didn't patch anything neither, it doesn't matter.

It does matter when it comes to which OS I would prefer running.

I think this is the important question. To everyone who is complaining while using Ubuntu for free: People whose software you use for free don't owe you anything.

Ok, but in this case it also isn’t available to people who pay.

Apparently they don’t owe anything to Ubuntu Pro subscribers too.

Of course they don't owe them anything. Ubuntu's reputation is built primarily on people who use it (or used to) for free. They are/were Ubuntu's advocates and what made it popular.

So just as they made it popular, they can make it unpopular. People like me will simply post on our blogs and social media that they should not install Ubuntu. A typical Ubuntu user is not that high on the tech scale, and they listen to people like me for suggestions on which distro.

Cut the pipeline that feeds into it.
