Some follow up thoughts (too long for initial post) Even though the Linux Foundation is a non-profit, just like Mozilla (quite possibly the software company I trust the most), Mozilla is also kind of well known for being mismanaged -- what about a company that's basically only doing management (and doesn't have products they must look after, per say). It's not certain that the Linux Foundation has similar issues but Mozilla at least has the need to turn a profit/install more browsers/make things that people want as an incentive but the Linux Foundation just basically sells itself. This is also kind of evident in the Linux Foundation's extremely confusing hyperledger group of blockchain technologies -- this seems like the kind of move that hype-driven VC backed companies make, not slow-and-steady trustworthy ones. What triggered this was watching a NATS[0] presentation where they mentioned being taken in by the CNCF and adding multi-tenancy -- this seems like a feature corporate users would ask for (which isn't inherently bad), and then it occurred to me that what if this is the effect of having the CNCF be involved was -- worrying more about "large scale" than just writing bulletproof, featureful software. This is kind of in line with the whole corporate co-opting of "open source" (which often is confused with "free" software), and capitalistic runs on developer mindshare via wosshing products (I think I just invented this term), but that's even more tinfoil-y. It's clear that I'm being paranoid, but I'd love if someone could help with some counter points to help me by maybe shining some light on what value alignment/adoption by the CNCF is bringing them and whether they did (or didn't) have to swallow any weird decisions because of it. Am I just totally off the mark? [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7yzUusMaUc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7yzUusMaUc
