If Linus got hit by a bus gregkh would step in the next day.
- paulmd 3y agoisn’t he basically the reason there’s no official/upstream hdmi 2.1 support on Linux, with his little symbol wars? between hdmi 2.1 and zfs he’s basically single-handedly reverted more useful, basic features and code than anyone else on the kernel team, all in the name of… DRM’ing symbols that have been “”mis-licensed”” for decades? doesn’t really seem like a fight he had to pick, or anybody asked him to pick - the status quo was adequate for everyone involved (including users). so why is that guy being in charge of Linux a good thing? doesn’t seem that complex to not go around starting trouble when the status quo is stable and fine. Maybe Linux just appreciates boat-rockers more than the Unix world though - there are no Poetterings or GKHs eagerly churning everything in that part of the world.
