Comment on If everyone at Microsoft forgot how to code, why don't they open source their stuff?

And? The question was “Where does Linux get money?”, my answer was “No money, that isn’t even a goal”.
I don’t understand you.

There is no single “Linux” to make money is my point
It’s organizations, sometimes non-profit and sometimes not. There is money in the building of linux. It doesn’t run on wishes.
You’re either a) misinformed if you think it’s mostly funded by donations or b) not understanding the point.
