@tante@tldr.nettime.org man there are layers to this shit onion for sure.
Don't like the meta involvement. Don't like the pay-to-play attitude for kernel contributions (although I agree that contributions should not be made easy. They shouldn't be made exclusionary as well. It should just depend on code quality). Don't like the overall tone this is worded ("social warrior project")
Unfortunately Linux is still the least bad alternative in terms of compatibility and support compared to windows and MacOS.

I've seen people pushing for people to move to BSD distros. Which in some senses are better than Linux (resistance as a community to external pressure, secure-by-default distribution guidelines) but in some others it's lagging far behind (software and hardware support, desktop compatibility, a license that makes proprietary forks much more likely). It's a pick-your-poison type of scenario.
