Obviously I'm not the user you've replied to, but what about SUSE Enterprise Linux Desktop, for example? I've got an ISO, but can't update because I need to have a subscription... Am I making stuff up or am I SOL?

You could use OpenSUSE Leap, which is binary compatible to SLES. Even if you have an already installed SLES and want it to be updated, there are several ways, like setting up leap's update repos (binary compatible, remember?), or download the latest quaterly updated iso image, or some other more convoluted ways.
Migrate to openSUSE Leap if you don't want the enterprise support? From my understanding it's mostly downstream of SEL.
The "enterprise" part is you paying for the ability to get support if you need it.
Lots of searching
I think when you pay RHEL you mostly pay for support, custom dev and stuff like that so I would say it's really not worth the trouble getting the software.
You do realize that RHEL is open source, right? The "pirating" has already been done by RockyLinux (formerly CentOS).
Sign up for a free dev account, get a full free license. There's really no point in trying to "crack" it, unless you want to try collecting bug bounties.
Right here is the way... no need to "pirate" RHEL.
When you sign up for the FREE developer account.. you actually get 16 instances/entitlements you can run.. and you can renew your access yearly.. for free of course..
Pirating linux....that is a concept you don't come across everyday. Dude, just move off of Red Hat and onto a linux distribution that is not a corporate mega-whatever. Debian, Arch...take your pick. Open source is free ship that lets you pirate from the corporate/priopriatary seas. Don't make it harder.
I want to make it harder. It's the only big paid distro out there and I wish to claim it. But they say I can install the OS free but taking support and installing packages require subscription so it seems my goal is just an illusion. But thanks for giving advice bro.
RHEL is dead easy to pirate. https://developers.redhat.com/... A developer account is needed (it's free) but after that you're golden.
thanks for using Leebra!
go to feed...
Make no sense. Just download the ISO (from a torrent if you like "pirate stuff" or from official redhat after free registration) and install it. Dont sign-in, done.
Anyway what you pay for is supoort and online resources, not software.
Also, if you like "new" stuff use other distros. RHEL is for stability and long term support.
