I wonder how long until we start seeing hysterics about Linux being taken over by the Chinese.
They pretty much did exactly that when they kicked Russians off the maintainer list and Linus was a super big ol’ dick about it too.
They’ll make using Chinese Linux a pre-crime. Mandatory Microsoft for every citizen.
Look, we don’t mandate a single choice, just every other option is illegal 🤷♂️
China is a monkey paw
What?
China does a lot of things that are good and then counteracts them with bad, like monkey paw wishes. This is just another example
How so?
Some examples: China produces a huge amount of solar panels that we need for green energy. China is also building and using a ton of coal power plants, more than any other country.
China is moving away from Microsoft which will lead to decrease in Microsoft power and hopefully lead to a bunch of work on open source projects. China is also comitting genocide on the Uyghurs.
Etc
Those latter two examples seem pretty unrelated. I’m no fan of China’s government for various reasons, but them moving away from Microsoft seems like a good outcome for everyone.
So China will counteract its adoption of linux by… Committing a genocide? Something doesn’t add up here.
If you want to criticize China then find something more relevant and credible than CIA propaganda.
