Not to mention being a top contributor to the Linux kernel, clang/llvm, mysql, doing almost everyone's security research for them (including, notoriously, finding most of the issues that get released in Apple security patches), etc. Facebook sure does a better job of evangelizing their own open source stuff, but I'm not sure that means they're actually contributing more.
