minus-squareᗪᗩᗰᑎlinkfedilink54•7 months ago Linus Torvalds has been sold out to big tech companies like Google and Microsoft. He himself is a billionaire and no longer writes any code. I can’t take that seriously
minus-square@normalexit@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink18•7 months agoYeah a dozen or so commits updating readme files isn’t exactly compelling stuff. Any of us could do this in five minutes on GitHub.
minus-square@sudo@programming.devlinkfedilink15•7 months agoStill hosted on GitHub, a property of MicroSoft.
minus-square@ulkesh@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkEnglish4•7 months agoThat’s because it’s pure bullshit. And this repo will be deleted or abandoned in a month.
minus-squaremoonlightlinkfedilink17•7 months agoDoesn’t Linux already have a bunch of forks? I’m using the CachyOS kernel, for example
minus-square@JustMarkov@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglish3•7 months agoThat’s true, but how much hard-forks do you know?
minus-square@porl@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish1•7 months agoAt least one for each manufacturer that uses it under the hood in a Tivo-like manner
minus-square@LeFantome@programming.devlinkfedilink16•7 months agoAny bets on how likely that this is even maintained six months from now?
minus-square@Auli@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglish11•7 months agoSix months don’t even give it a month. I don’t think most people want to admit how many kernel devs are paid devs. Nobody is doing all this work for free people need a home and food.
Someone has forked Linux https://github.com/Cqinux/cinux
I can’t take that seriously

Relevant, maintained? Zero.

Six months don’t even give it a month. I don’t think most people want to admit how many kernel devs are paid devs. Nobody is doing all this work for free people need a home and food.
