I get that LibreOffice isn’t really needed on a server or Windows based enterprise; but i take it as this means RHEL is going to remove these packages from official repositories.

Does this mean LibreOffice won’t have RH as a supporter and maintainer?

I hope it will continue to be available on EPEL or something.

It probably will be, as long as someone is willing to maintain it there. EPEL gets engineering and infrastructure resources from Red Hat, but individual packages are maintained by volunteers.
