 Linus and the Linux project just shot themselves in the foot, now if you are Russian you cannot participate in the development of the kernel, politics is hateful and should not mix politics and free software projects of vital importance as Linux.

This can be a before and after in Linux.

Long live BSD systems.

 I don't support aggression, whether it's from Russia or from Linus.

 Is this what the "open" in open source stands for?

 Linus just killed Linux.

A sad day.

 Linus has always been a questionable character, but this takes the cake.

If he wants to be a NATO troll proud of Finland destroying its decades-old good relationship with Russia  (especially regarding trade) then let him. He’s not the only one by a long shot.

But involving Linux kernel development in it is a big mistake.

 Es un dia triste, el talento que hay en Rusia no debería verse afectado por las ideologías, 😢.

 Did he ban Israelis for their aggression? Americans for theirs over the years?

 Totalmente de acuerdo, si un desarrolador es válido, lo es independientemente de su país, raza, religión, etc
