Conversely, if you don't care about code quality feel free to not use Linux or make your own in-house patches without contaminating the kernel other people are trying to use. > also you are basically saying adopting linux is only for big tech. i don’t think that is in the spirit of open source. If only "big tech" can write kernel code safely then so be it. Of course, I think that premise is nonsense, but I don't care about the onramp enough to compromise on security.
