- martinsnow 2y agoRed hat contribute a lot but they don't pay well. I believe their finances are tight.
- CursedSilicon 2y agoRed Hat's gambit has always been to hire engineers to do good work on Linux broadly, in many areas. As opposed to just dropping crates full of money at random on projects Of course they still get tarred and feathered with the "Red Hat wants to control Linux!" brush because they...contribute the bulk of development to projects like GNOME
- martinsnow 2y agoI've nothing against red hat and i love that an organization is doing work in the free software space. But it's a choice as an engineer if you want to devote your loss of salary to do honest work. I do open source in my free time because my family can't sustain itself otherwise. Kudos to all the devs out there working on open software.
