Why do people still say that you can’t expect quality from open source projects when there are multi-million to multi-billion dollar organizations behind them?

- harikb 6y agoI don't know why people think that Google having multiple billions should mean they are willing to spend billions on every thing they do. That is not sustainable. Every project has a value to that company and any sane company will only spend whatever level matches that. They are paying for, say 100 engineers (just making up this number). Isn't that enough?
- paulryanrogers 6y agoBecause those projects are a small fraction of all OSS.
- ex_amazon_sde 6y agoBecause dollars are not correlated with quality.
- srtjstjsj 6y agoPerfection is different from quality.
