      Using your argument then Sony owes BSD a 100 billion because Sony uses BSD as the OS for the PS3, PS4, and PS5.

      Where does it end?

        Ubuntu is a poor example of "free Work" supports the "paid work" because Ubuntu is the OS of choice for NVIDIA's DGX servers and has been since they were first introduced.

        Ubuntu has a strong presence in the Enterprise and data center markets, which is what's driving demand for their Pro services,

        For vendors without a presence in those markets there is no demand for Pro versions and so they rely on donations, like Mint.
        you are poor example of a human being

          Mostly-Non-Canonical -- https://canonical.com/projects

          beside Debian an OpenStack, they're almost entirely Canonical projects.



          no wonder why people keep asking what is Canonical contributing upstream then.

          anyway, beside the already mentioned Gnome, nothing relevant remains, it seems.
          gnome is not relevant

            as soon as microsoft money is in the game i am out... i was a kubuntu user years before microsoft money did hit canonical... i was .deb based distro user for over 20 years and because of the microsoft money i am now .rpm based ...fedora... looks like i had to admit after 20 years that redhat is better than the microsoft subversive agents who push stuff like snaps.

              You know, strawmen are not arguments.

              There's literally only one company that makes money by selling a closed source generalist OS. Apple bundles it with their own hardware and is very adamant in blocking you from using it anywhere else.
              Every other company that tried selling a generalist OS in the past 3 decades has failed spectacularly. I spent the first 10 years of my career working at IBM on OS/2, so I know something of that. Also every proprietary Unix has basically disappeared.

              In the meanwhile, the open source + Pro services model started by RedHat has proliferated to Suse, Ubuntu, and many others.

              So you have a closed source model that degenerated into a semi-monopoly, and an open-source model that expanded into multiple independent offerings. What is capitalism saying about that?
