(this post obviously assumes the recent removal of russian devs due to sanctions is bad; no need to comment if you disagree)
a lot of people i know are considering jumping ship to some bsd after the recent MAINTAINERS debacle, but i’m skeptical it would make any difference. afaik, they’re just as us-centric as linux if not more (it’s the berkeley software distribution, after all). also, my biggest gripe about the bsds and the main reason i’ve never had any interest in them is their permissive licensing. permissive licenses suck
would there be any difference wrt sanctions in the bsds or moving away from linux to *bsd bc of that would be pointless?
It depends on the people and the legal stuff behind everything related to BSD. I don’t think there’s any history of them dealing with stuff like this (at least not that I’m familiar with) and also there are too many variables to consider. It’s impossible to make a meaningful guess here imo.
EDIT: btw early congrats on the month’s most controversial post. I guess you’re even beating me with this one.
lmao, it was just an honest question. people are too sensitive
