Now that Red Hat is being IBM-fied, should I leave Fedora Kinoite?

I left Ubuntu when they sent all my dock search history to Amazon. But this time is different, should I leave Fedora considering how much it is developed by Red Hat?

I've actively defended this distribution and Red Hat for many years now and I'm deep in their technology but I want to avoid being a Devil's Advocate.

EDIT: I decided to give it some more time, I'll stay on Kinoite for now, if Red Hat's IBMfication reaches Fedora, I'll switch to Debian assuming we don't have a high quality immutable replacement by then. I've been on /r/opensuse and read rbrownsuse's posts enough times to know MicroOS KDE is NOT a good suggestion, their rebranding doesn't clean up their history.

Seconding Endeavour - Gives you all the benefits of Arch (the wiki, the freakin AUR) without so much of the... Assembly required part. They give you a desktop, a web browser and a firewall and you're off to the races. A perfect in between, IMO.
