- Comment on Linus Torvalds affirms expulsion of Russian maintainers 3 weeks ago:
I mean he’s legally obligated to, not really a choice. He can say screw it, but then he opens himself up to legal troubles. Also hasn’t there been instances of state actors trying to slip in vulnerabilities to Linux as anonymous devs?

I think that might help, asking for volunteers. Segregating them based on their abilities (LinkedIn profile for instance). There are a lot of people who have a couple of hours a week they can spend for such a cause. Please check with your colleagues and see if asking for volunteers is possible.
Donating money is also an option, but in this economy, it’s not sustainable to donate significant sums on a recurring basis for most.

Unpopular opinion: Win 11 works well for me, and is visually better than Win 10. Although it’s a fairly recent PC. Although if they keep pushing more telemetry and ads, I’m moving over to Ubuntu.
