I'm not super tech savvy or familiar with the linux world much, nor do I know anything about the drama behind these things, so please bear with me.

Heard a lot of bad things about RedHat and vaguely know that they have a lot of influence over Fedora and things like Wayland, which I'm planning to make my main OS sometime soon. How concerned should I be in the long term if I settle with Fedora? Don't wanna constantly distro hop anymore, Fedora is the closest thing to my needs for now.

You should. Give OpenSUSE Tumbleweed a try. It's about as leading-edge as Fedora, but without the Red Hat baggage.

SUSE, the enterprise behind OpenSUSE, has scarcely any controversies behind it. It is also EU-based.

Plus tumbleweed works pretty well. That's my daily driver distro.
