The fact that their employees can work on a large part of the Linux ecosystem during work hours makes a huge difference too. I often come across people from redhat experimenting, like implementing screen sharing in wayland.
I've heard that they've been known to buy up stuff like Ansible for example, and then release source code. In ansible's case it was AWX, but I wish I had some better examples to mention. Maybe someone else can fill me in on some company red hat has purchased only to release their product source code to the public.
