[QUOTE="Nightwalker, post: 1034275, member: 23015"] You are right, but not completely, Open Source software is not out of generosity; most open source developers are paid employees from big companies like Red Hat, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Suse, IBM, Oracle and so on that may or may not make direct money from it, but it isnt charity, far from it. .[ATTACH alt="Captura de tela 2023-04-05 141807.png"]274254[/ATTACH] Yes, We have some developers that make software without pursing any monetary gain, but without the big companies open source is condened to death. For example, the Linux kernel is almost fully developed by big companies, those distributions that you mentioned usually are just a hobby project that dont progress or change the scenario at all.
