Open source it. It might end up being great.

And he got paid nothing but a pat on the back. 🤣
GM ☕️😁
Well, not really. It made him famous and he's now a multi-millionaire because of all of the jobs, awards, and stock options he has received.
If Linus was in for it for the money, he would’ve tried to sell it instead of offering it as open source in the first place. And it ended up being great, indeed.
I know. It was a joke. Lol.
Most OPEN SAUCE devs never come close to this though.
Most closed-sourced devs, either. Both groups mostly toil away in obscurity, at normal dev day-jobs, or as university students on scholarships and grants.
You only get famous, if you build something really groundbreaking, whether it's closed-sourced or open-sourced.
And a lot of (most?) open-source code actually comes from those day jobs, so our employers cross-finance the work on OS with our other stuff.
I contribute to OS codebases through my employers, as we use OS tools inhouse, or integrate them into our products.
But that still doesn't make me Linus. 😁
The closest thing Nostr has to Linus is probably Fiatjaf. It has to be some large, intellectual leap into a completely new construct, and only the protocol itself has been that innovative, so far.
He initially commercialized it and then switched to the new GNU license.
The idea of open-sourcing was really new, at the time, so he had to understand the concept, first.
android is a clown on linux
there is basically none of the linux left there
and none of the open source either
"""OPEN SOURCE OS"""
<all development made by google behind closed doors deployed with locked bootloaders on consumer devices who are not granted system level access
#linuxstr
Nice try and nice lies...people forget all the proprietary blobs Virus Torvalds put in there.
Stallman removed them with GNU/Linux
Who is Stall-man? This retarded response is low-IQ behavior.
If you don't know who Stallman is then you know nothing about GNU/Linux lol
Stick to microsoft windows buddy....low IQ lol....
Read the meme again! ;-)
I don't need to know about some stall-man to use modern Linux. Sounds like you're the type of guy to use Windows
Again, low-IQ response about some programmer no one has heard of. Literally anybody else could have reinvented Linux or "GNU".
