Or, in other words, Valkey is Jenkins here, and Redis is Hudson.
What's the point of spreading informations that are not true? I believe there is a single person that was in Redis and works there now, at least AFAIK. And this person stopped working at Redis long time ago (and was not a core developer). So I'm not understanding who joined ValKey from Redis folks.
Everybody is working at Redis: me, Oran, Yossi, Meir, many others.
It is probably more correct to say a bunch of Redis contributors left the Redis GitHub project and moved over to Valkey.
You can see there are a bunch of contributors listed on this page who seem to predate the fork and who have continued to contribute:
https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey/graphs/contributors
Particularly these contributors standout:
https://github.com/enjoy-binbin
Sure. And same for Redis employees who continue to work on the Redis Github project. All my significant contributions to open source have had financial incentives as well.
