Please explain to me. I moved away from Big Tech and installed - even on my old MacBook Pro 2015 - Linux Mint. I use open source software and my social media is on Fedivers. I tought I was “safe” by using Linux, but the Linux Foundation is sponsord by a lot of money by Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, Google, etc… etc… the exact companies I try to take some distance off. Can somebody please explain me if Linux is “sold” to US Big Tech now?
I know my factory lights piss people off but my god they are good to drive with. In part it is wholly funded by big tech and FOSS in general would not be where it is without this funding. Do you think the software would be this far along without people being paid to don’t? Having ideals is non thing having to eat is another.
