I'm building a custom kernel for the Odroid N2+ as I write this. I can't wait to not do this again.
- alangibson 4y agoUgh. I may have spoken too fast: > Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS with the real-time kernel is available via Ubuntu Pro They need to kill this Ubuntu Pro garbage post haste before the entire OSS community turns on them. Charge for the support, not the software.
- jacooper 4y agoI mean RHEL charges for software too. But anybody can clone the source, plus Ubuntu Pro is free for up to 5 machines, and RHEL too is free for up to 16 machines. If Ubuntu pro gets big enough, we might actually see a rocky-style Ubuntu pro clone.
- MoOmer 4y agoThere is tremendous value in the software, and it probably took quite a bit of time to add that in. Just this week we saw a pretty high-visibility discussion about the difficulties in funding OSS. Everyone has different opinions, but I've derived quite a bit of value from Canonical's F/OSS efforts/contributions and am supportive of them exploring ways to make money, even if it's for a period of time, behind high-value-add features.
- pjmlp 4y agoThose developers have to put food on the table somehow. Not everyone on the OSS community can afford to be street performers living from tips.
