Video is completely click-bait but worth only because of the first YouTube comment:

"One morning a colleague of mine turned to me and asked me if I would help him help out a friend of his who had just sent him some software that he had written. He forwarded the email he got from his friend on to me, and walked me through the accompanying instructions. That afternoon after work I installed the software as per instructions onto my 386. It was an absolute bitch to configure, but I managed to get it running. I ran a few of the test programs, entered the commands in the order set out by the instructions, and watched in awe as the operating system performed a variety of diagnostics at blistering speed. My colleague's friend from the other side of the world, Linus Trovalds, had sent him what he called "LiNUX". Ah man, I wish I archived that email!"

Did you watch it? I think he has a few valid points

Yes I did watch.

We are past those types of concerns over Linux. The Cloud IS Linux.

Azure runs more Linux than Windows https://build5nines.com/linux-is-most-used-os-in-microsoft-a...

About the Google projects...they cannot do any project that they wont get bothered with.

As Linus said, we win when Microsoft starts developing for Linux...I am not dismissing the concerns, but the issues with Linux are not the corporations issues.

Are things like C vs Rust, Linus not considering Security bugs more important than other bugs and the complexity of the kernel that makes difficult to recruit new maintainers plus the fact that testing is outsourced to the distributions.

Will become irrelevant when Fuchsia is able to replace Linux as a drop in?
