Who do you think is the best leader to grow the Free Software movement?
Free Software is first and foremost a political movement. It would be better to have someone at the helm who isn't totally inept at navigating media and politics.
I never implied he would've had the opportunity.
I should've elaborated, I meant a 15 year old traveling to eastern European lecture halls to blah blah blah GNU would be better than a 30 yr retired, water bucket showering, absent minded professor-like toe jam muncher.
it held so much promise. but now open source just exists to empower capitalists with the free labor of others. It's more than a dead dream, it's grown into something inverted against itself.
Linux is everywhere and effectively dead at the same time. What's the point anymore.
Technology is just one big HR department, one big ticket system, one big pair of khakis we can all collectively wear, one big Teams call. All of it.
It was all a mistake.
