Their lives are sad enough that without the hatred, there's no other reason to live. But more on the point, it's so wild that so much C code in the kernel subsystems are just straight up undocumented and even the maintainers barely know how they function. I wonder how many bugs or performance issues are left on the table just because people can't be bothered to try and work through that code?

The world needs at a minimum stable APIs for drivers and filesystems. I don't think Linux will get there.
Something else will take over as Linux spirals into irrelevance.

Uhm. No. Just don't buy Nvidia... They follow the Windows driver model.
With AMD on Linux if I want the latest drivers I am forced to update to the latest Linux kernel version (which is not always the best idea for obvious reasons) where as with NVidia I am not.
