You can have all the opinions you want. In the end, the ecosystem (Linux is an ecosystem, not an OS) evolves by people with different drives trying different things, some aspects are successful and are kept, some are developed for a while and dropped, some are brilliant but never reach critical mass.
It’s a somewhat chaotic mix of engineering and tinkering that ultimately works while embracing widely opposing opinions. This quirky nature provides it with strength and flexibility.
Bottom line: we need strong opinions and people who act on those opinions to build the vision they want.


I’ve done my part and closed my account. Those freebies were nice, but I’m not supporting that wanker.
