Start up the discussions on migration, yes. Do not switch just because something is open source.
If it’s a fork of literally the same software, just rebranded, why not? Plenty of people switched from CentOS to AlmaLinux right away by executing a small shell script.
And how is that working out with Suy vs Yuzu? I mean, it is the exact same code so you might as well just use it, right?
The reality is that you have no idea if the new maintainers are trustworthy or even competent. In this specific case the “maintainers” are the Linux Foundation which is one of the more trustworthy sources. But there is still no guarantee they will emphasize performance or user support versus stability.
Which is why you have conversations rather than just “FOSS good!”
