    Absolutely idiotic take that endangers not only Linux but fractures the concept of open source itself.

      I think it’s a great change. But then again I’m not a lemmy.ml user.

      Thinking this endangers Linux is pretty hilarious. Linux will be fine without a handful of Russian maintainers lol.

      Does anybody really believe that the whole Linux project will fall apart because of this?

      Go look at the principles of open-source or free software as defined either by the OSI and the FSF and then come back when you find the one that says that Linus needs to violate US sanctions to keep employees of Russian companies in trusted roles within his project.
