Disgusting. Pausing my volunteer tablet driver contributions and any future Linux-related work until The Linux Foundation grows a bit of ethics. If they don’t change, I’ll look elsewhere.
nostr...
@nprofile1q... The Linux Foundation is not a monolithic thing. It consists of many corporations, which, in turn, consist of many more humans.
And it does many things besides Linux, some of which are real head scratches (at least for me).
This is quite possibly, a random Joe or a random boss doing a thing without much thought. Or with thought of investors, neglecting which turn out bad for Ford, IIRC.
And over... this, the whole foundation seem rotten; lead by worst example, all in the world is bad (it isn't bad, if we include a bit more than the worst).
That is not to say that Linux Foundation is good; it is corporate alliance, to do its things, some of which related to Linux.
Now, with this more detailed picture, ask yourself... is it worth to assign the mega-blame... to a project worth billions (Linux kernel), given for free to all?
And, what this does actually accomplish? Do you think that generative AI actually uses tablets on Linux? Or maybe actual artists are using tablets? And Linux gives more freedom from corporate control, to 'em?
Your time is yours. And your decisions, are too. And you do lots of amazing, evocative, libre arts (& more). Just... here's a bit of food for thought, okay?
