Notoriously is a stretch if almost all of Linux ARM commits these days come from them

Qualcomm is changing a lot. They are learning and adopting open source. I’ve seen this in other Silicon vendors, they used to deal only with big corps and would talk to you only if you promised to buy millions of parts. Now they are all moving to a model where they want an open ecosystem , attract developers, promote open source. It’s changing , it’s not going to be perfect, there will be false steps but the direction is good and we all benefit from this change. As someone else said they are way ahead of NVIDIA in open source adoption so you should keep an eye on Qualcomm

They are no better than Nvidia.

I do not see your point.
