For the record, Google also distributes its own version of Linux to customers, whereas Amazon and Facebook do not. It'd still be nice to see them contribute, of course.
As for Yahoo, it runs on FreeBSD, actually. They provide hosting to the FreeBSD project, though I don't know if they write any code.
- mbrubeck 17y agoThat's true, I forgot about Android. Are there any other Google Linux distributions that I missed? Note that Amazon also distributes a custom embedded Linux system on the Kindle. Replace Yahoo (oops!) with some other web site operator. It doesn't matter which, since not one of them contributes as much as Google. :)
