    He is a time poor impatient person. That is something linux will need to address for wider adoption.

    I would argue that their example resulted in some very wide ranging changes in approach that was long overdue.

    Linux was at risk of becoming an “OS for us” instead of a true replacement for everyone.

    I suspect if they repeat the challange today, it would be a night and day difference.

      Yeah exactly, same reason I stepped off of linux. I don’t have the time to fix shit and it works with minimal effort is something I need.

      I will switch as soom as it there and I am glad that people are willing to pay the time tax for now so that we have good adoption in the future. It just isn’t for me and I think Linus is the same.
