I for one am excited to see just how hard Linus’ nose can actually get, at some point the molecules are going to stop vibrating

Linus Torvalds is the single point of failure in the damn keeping back the enshittification of Linux. I truly hope he’s training a pridigy to take over when he’s no longer able.

I think when Linus dies, there’ll be a bunch of forks of the Linux kernel. A bunch of them will go to shit but one or two will prevail, possibly leading to even more infighting in the Linux community :3

I wonder if another kernel will ever start competing with Linux - there’s more and more Unix-like OSes being made with microkernels nowadays
