=> ↺ Linux Foundation decreased Linux spending to 3.2% in 2022.
I’m not going to sugar coat this… it is absolutely ridiculous.
The highlight? Funding for the Linux kernel, in 2022, dropped to a measly 3.2% of the foundation’s total revenue of $243 Million dollars.
Down from the — already absurdly low — 3.4% from 2021.
Considering the name of the foundation… that is, needless to say, highly amusing. Or infuriating. Possibly concerning. Likely all three.
Let’s dive into the details and try to figure out why this is happening.
=> ↺ Linux Foundation, bored with Linux, launches Open Metaverse Foundation
In 2021, The Linux Foundation decided to branch out from their core business (“Linux”) to create an entire foundation focused on “Health” and, specifically, creating vaccine passports.
Was it weird that The Linux Foundation was now in the vaccine business?
Yes. Yes, it was.
Well, it appears that someone has dared Jim Zemlin — the head of The Linux Foundation — to keep making new projects and sub-foundations that make absolutely no sense. Perhaps, even, double-dog dared him.
Because yesterday — January 18th, 2023 — The Linux Foundation unveiled their latest attempt to do absolutely anything other than Linux.
