Not that FreeBSD is outside of politics or compliance or anything. But hopefully they don't have a "benevolent dictator" that acts literally like a random kid on the internet.

@PeterCxy@comfy.social ​​ what happened?

@puniko@mk.absturztau.be https://typeblog.net/55833/getting-called-paid-actor-by-linus-torvalds

That's enough for me to stop viewing Linus as a reasonable human being.

@PeterCxy@comfy.social ​​ ah, linux kernel drama again, i see. idk, but in my impression, linus sure is known to be like this from now and then in the mailinglist. it sure isnt the first time

@puniko@mk.absturztau.be it's one thing to say "fuck" to patches. It's another thing to put on a tinfoil hat accuse anyone who disagrees with a clandestine change of being a state-sponsored actor. It's yet another thing to resort to pure nationalism when one doesn't have an argument or cannot talk about said argument.

@puniko @PeterCxy Surely isn't the first time you see Linus in Action lol. Atleast he got way better with some stuff which is good.

Won't really stop anyone from using linux tbh. Its just too important. But yeah I guess real life conflicts also affect this stuff.

@PeterCxy@comfy.social wasnt trying to excuse his behaviour there. sorry if it came across like that. i certainly dont disagree with you

@puniko@mk.absturztau.be On the flip side, I am officially claiming as the Paid Actor of the Holy Empire of Catgirls everywhere
