Similarly to how Red Hat was/is the force behind Gnome, Wayland, (if I recall correctly) pipewire, and many now ‘universal’ parts of modern linux user-space.
Wayland & Pipewire are driven by freedesktop.org not red hat. The founders of Wayland & Pipewire are/were redhat engineers, however their involvement doesn’t mean that “red hat” as an entity has control over the projects. Additionally, in the case of Wayland the founder had left redhat for Intel prior to becoming the founder.
