Same. I'm definitely worried that they'll become more corporate as part of this, but at the same time a lot of those changes have already happened. When I first started using Linode, they had Rickrolls in their X-Mailer headers for all requests. It was honestly something that made me choose them in the first place - it felt like it was being made by people who would pay attention to those small things.

I've been super happy with their service over the decade I've been using them, but I've steadily been using Vultr more and more recently.
