They haven’t donated to political parties, have they? That would have been big news I’m pretty sure I would have seen.

I overall like it for entertainment. As far as I can tell, through the years of “scandals”, Linus doesn’t seem like a bad person. Just a person who means well but makes human mistakes sometimes.

I strongly feel the only reasons Linux is actually gaining traction right now are

A) proton/wine getting good enough interfaces for regular people to start using them (steam, heroic, hopefully bottles someday gets easier to use)

B) KDE making strides with their desktop envoronment.

C) flatpaks being easy to use and fairly reliable once someone learns to prioritize them

All still have a LOT of work to do with UX, but they are close enough to good that its less of a hurdle for new people to pick them up.

Hmmm maybe I should post more. Or we can make our own list.
