what happens when libre software is neglected in preference of #proprietary alternatives? #jitsi happens. #xmpp happens. #widevine happens.

if you and others do not use it, how will it grow?

@schestowitz I thought it weird that Linus Torvalds would get so compliant with the whole personality attack and code of conduct crap imposed by people that contribute so little. Now I assume he has given up fighting for the kernel and does not give a crap what happens as long as he gets paid. Because the persons that tore down his walls are the same ones that sold his castle. Linux is no longer GNU. Linux is about to be dead. Watch for Windows vulnerabilities appearing in kernel...
