That's pretty stupid since blm turned out to be a complete scam. It was all over the news that the leaders bought houses for themselves worth millions. You guys are fucking stupid for supporting that shit.
That's how "takeovers" happen. No one is willing to fight at the first sign of change so they just let the money be dominated by woke interests. Then we look back in years and wonder golly gee how could such a hostile takeover ever have happened. Who allowed this to happen? Many such cases.
>any FOSS movement is a scam, no surprise here
Pretty much every large non profit either is already a scam or will be a scam. Only super-democratic and/or super-religious non profits can escape that.
Look at ICANN/PIR/etc. >But the board makes peanuts
The contracts the non profit enters into aren't for peanuts and their friends and family just so happen to get those contracts.
>Only super-democratic and/or super-religious non profits can escape that.
You think they escape it? That's very funny.
There's only one way to really escape it: don't have enough money for it to be worth someone's time to scam.

No, the whole diversity in open source is adopting a CoC(k) and changing master to main
A little under 60% goes to non-Linux project funding and an increasing number of FOSS projects that are operated under the Linux Foundation's umbrella. The Hyperledger Foundation, the Linux Foundation's block chain arm, receives 3.7% of funding.
Like with any non-profit there's a ton of money spent on other things, but the big part of it is still spent on FOSS, just not specifically kernel development, which Lunduke concedes in the article but still points out reduces kernel dev resources. The motivation is still likely self interested, sure; additional resources for projects like the Hyperledger suite, the Xen Project, and Keycloak all benefit the donors more directly the Linux kernel support; the effects of improvements there are going to be felt by the people consuming that software, while you don't really "see" the Linux kernel until something breaks.
The real question is whether more money would actually improve the Linux kernel at this stage; is there any part of kernel dev that requires additional capital so immediately? And what's to say the allocations wouldn't increase to kernel dev if they needed it?
All in all, it's a better article from Lunduke than I've come to expect, but still alarmist in character. I would respect him more if he went to the kernel devs and figured out if they had a genuine need for more money and could comment on project funding anonymously.
No, if you actually read the article the first comment was right, they literally spend most of it on "diversity and inclusion"
Brain poisoned by /misc/ with no other framework by which anything can be defined. This person can offer you no meaningful insights.
You can't expect every thread to be a circlejerk. I said a lot, but the main thing is that if you can't prove the Linux kernel needs the money, this is just pointless outrage bait that should keep sliding down the catalog.
>The real question is whether more money would actually improve the Linux kernel at this stage; is there any part of kernel dev that requires additional capital so immediately?
This is the only worthwhile question itt. Would throwing more money at the kernel actually help development? Are there on going projects that would benefit from having a contractor work on it full time?
This. Surely Linus would kick up a stink if he wasn't getting the money he needed.
Do companies who want to donate to the kernel do so through the foundation?
Yea it's center left because almost all countries today are neoliberal with austerity and zero serious state ownership. back in the day they were slightly to the right because of privatizations
Just imagine giving your money to other people to spend. Just fucking imaging it for a second.
If you still want to do that then just fucking give it to me, I'll put it to better use than anyone else can.
Well yeah. They are not the ones developing linux which is done by partner companies. Their job is to coordinate conferences, licenses, marketing, and educational material.
What do you mean? They have a whole bunch of training and certification material. I took some of their kernel programming workshops and they are of good quality.
Where's the green text of the gnome developer who opens and closes a ticket and takes a 2 week notice?
Foss people are some of the weirdest hybrid of lazy/smart people I've ever seen. They literally live and breath tech, know things at w deep level, but don't want to work. Is it the hubris that comes with such skill that makes them so lazy?

Everyone who actually wants to donate to Linux just donates to their distro of choice, or something like Debian, because then they keep patching and updating the kernel in turn.

E.g. for Kubernetes they have https://killer.sh/, which is a series of VMs with actual problem scenarios to resolve, a far cry from the usual vendors' unproctored multiple choice spam
Aren't all non-profit organizations a scam? You have the CEO's and executives making millions while you have a bunch of people on the bottom working for free.
>The Linux Foundation invests more money into “Blockchain” than “Linux”. By a lot (3.7% vs 2.3% of total project spending).
That's funny.
I think long term success of Linux depends on projects mostly completely outside of Linux, just not the ones they are handing out money too. Throw some money at KDE devs maybe? Then again, volunteer work is as likely destroyed as helped by money.
56% of money goes to other projects. Of course dumb article writers with their retarded reddit "hot takes" think it's for DEI because (not joking, look it up) Linux foundation has five pages on DEI inside some obscure presentation

This, however IS something to seethe about. The Linux foundation needs to quickly realize that it is China, not India that will take on the world and become the sole hegemony and superpower. They need to do everything in their power to obtain more Chinese and approval from the CPC.

On December 8th, 2022, the Linux Foundation released their annual report for 2022.
I’m not going to sugar coat this… it is absolutely ridiculous.
The highlight? Funding for the Linux kernel, in 2022, dropped to a measly 3.2% of the foundation’s total revenue of $243 Million dollars.
Down from the — already absurdly low — 3.4% from 2021.
Considering the name of the foundation… that is, needless to say, highly amusing. Or concerning. Possibly infuriating. Likely all three.
Let’s dive into the details and try to figure out why this is happening.
https://lunduke.locals.com/post/4408159/linux-foundation-decreased-linux-spending-to-3-2-in-2022
>The Linux Foundation invests more money into “Blockchain” than “Linux”. By a lot (3.7% vs 2.3% of total project spending).

So 89% of spending goes towards the kernel. What's the problem again?
Source: your ass
We don't know where vast majority of the money goes, which means they go in places they don't want you to know
the sources are the article from the author in the OP and the Linux Foundation's annual report, retard
yeah, it seems the author is unfortunately retarded
The author does not understand the communitarian nature of free software. That's why he cannot fathom why other projects would get money from the Linux foundation.
But in reality it makes perfect sense. We are all a big family after all
Other projects are vaccine passports
uhuh I bet
sirs please mentor the needful
So much about DEI
This, however IS something to seethe about. The Linux foundation needs to quickly realize that it is China, not India that will take on the world and become the sole hegemony and superpower. They need to do everything in their power to obtain more Chinese and approval from the CPC.
That’s crazy bro I’m still going to dual
boot Linux and pirated windows 10 IoT LTCS and pirate all my games and all my software that isn’t already open source, and donate not a single penny to anything
LF is NSA
hearty kek at the retards giving money to them
don't post the link or anything, just post outrage and that people can't follow up on.
