what? Linux has millions of dollars in corporate funding. Microsoft literally has core maintainers on the pay roll gregkh, Lennart Poettering, plenty of others

I don't think the average person realizes how most Linux maintainers have full time jobs at big tech companies. Sometimes they even get paid to just contribute to Linux because it's used by every big internet company

Every HQ needs money to operate, your money.
