Linus Torvalds Rejects the Idea of Enabling Damon by Default in the Linux Kernel

  > "This reverts commit 28615e6eed152f2fda5486680090b74aeed7b554. No, we don't make random features default to being on." This tracks well with me. I hate that everything suddenly changes on me even if I just sit there and use my software.

    I wonder if the quality comes from a single guy shouting at people when they break something.

    me too. The world gets enough of this nonsense with windows/macos/ios/apps/etc. nobody says (a common sense) "No."

  In case you're confused as to who Damon is and what he's doing in the Linux kernel, the story is about DAMON[1]: DAMON is a Linux kernel subsystem that provides a framework for data access monitoring and the monitoring results based system operations.
