      He's not the most friendly person, but linux is open source since 0.01 and if he not cared about other people he certainly would not do that. Also if you look at old interviews(pre 2020) linus always wanted to show his work to other people.

      If you only work on FOSS in your freetime, then yes.
      But it is entirely possible to work a well-paid job with FOSS.
      Granted, for the extremely well-paying jobs you need to invest time to become known beforehand but for every standard, run-of-the-mill dev or admin position there exist positions focusing on FOSS.
      Despite the job market being a little weird right now, I'd still say it's a matter of willingness.

    Linux isn't Open Source. Free as in Free Speech, not Free Beer. Which Means, My Gob is Saying its Free. My Gob has the Freedom to Say Whatever it Wants, be it Lies. Linux is Not Free as in Free Beer. Which Means you Have to PAY for an Inferior Product.
    I Could Write 100 Page Documents in Word for Windows 3.0.
    Open Office Crashes on Single Page Documents. Windows 3.0 didn't Switch between User Mode and Kernel Mode. 25 MHz Processors, Couldn't do That. You Need 100 MHz for Windows NT 3.0.
    Windows XP (Borg / Avatar ) Needs 300 MHz. A Linux System, that is functionally Equivalent 1 GHz.
    Unreal Engine isn't Open Source. The Open Source Free Version is Buggy: The Game Character Falls THROUGH the Floor and dis-Appears, Occasionally.
    Kernel Kesaria is 8 Times (800%) Faster.
    Believe, it Or Not. The Goal was to Make a SECURE Operating System, Not a Faster One.
    Minix? Tanenbaum isn't The Only P1G, that knows, if You Separate Code into Separate Processes. Then the System becomes More Reliable and Secure.
    However, I Knew That Wouldn't Work. So, I Chose a HARDWARE Method.
    The Decision to go to 128 bit was for Security. The Expanded Address Space means: We Could have Valid and Invalid Virtual Address Spaces. Our Chips are Faster (4X=400% Faster). Going to 128 bit made us Faster.
    Then Moving the Process Scheduler and Memory Management into The Kernel was for Security. A Hardware based Security Mechanism, made us Even Faster.

    Linux is Intel. Now they're Dead, You're Gonna Have to Go to ARM Linux, which is Sony.
    Sony Dieing, You're Gonna Have to Go to NXP Semiconductors. Only 100 MHz.
    After a Few Years they Might get to 500 MHz.
    Its Gonna Take them a Decade to Get to 1 GHz.
