If you won the silicon valley lottery, how would you reward your open-source homies? Would you donate to Unbuntu? Kick it down to 7Zip? Spend time sifting through greenlight for dev teams you want to sponsor?
>>
I'd set up a monthly donation of $1 million to the Gentoo Foundation
>>
I would keep it all for myself.

lmao

>>60464887
I'd create some fund for open source programmers where they'd get a ton of money for creating a single good DE/WM and I'd take it all back the second they forked it into ten unusable pieces of shit like they always do.

Oh come on, out of all the free shit these dev's give you, you wouldn't give them one red cent? WTF is wrong with this community?
>>
>>60466164
I'm going to twist your little fox nipples until you stop being such a little shit.
>>
>>60464887

I'd donate lots to the Free Software Foundation to hire devs to maintain and improve critical Free Software packages.
>>
>>60465931
It's free?
>>
>>60465484
For a big corporation, donating to free software projects isn't charity, it's an investment. Even Microsoft supports Linux and other FOSS with code and money, for example.
>>
>>60464887
Depends.
If my wealth came from their stuff, I'd probably buy some projects some audits and more devs.

also
>greenlight
>>
>>60464887
Ubuntu got me into everything (prog, sysadmin, networking)

so a lot of shekels for them
>>
I would write a personal check to Richard Stallman, but I doubt he has a bank account.
>>
>>60465931

I do donate to FOSS but there's only so much an individual who isn't filthy rich can do.
>>
>>60467305
just donate it to EFF, I am sure it will reach him.
>>
>>60467394

EFF is not a panacea. They have some tendrils in the SocJus pie though it's not clear how deep.
>>
>>60464887
By putting worthwhile bounties up for all the features and fixes I want the most. Along with funding development wholesale for open source programs I want that don't exist yet.
>>
But what about all those programs you already use? Wouldn't you like to say thanks to all the people who helped you make it to the top?
>>
Buy me my 1000 ryzen rig please

Well, there you have it LINUX devs. Thats your fanbase. Nothing but a bunch gimmedats. They are content to let you eat cheeto's and mountain for lunch when you should be being served filet Mignon.
