Alright,
If you are not familiar with the subject already,
I recommend you watching these video from Bryan Lunduke which give some detail from this situation:
As a linux nerd, I just wanted to know your opinion about this.
And yes, I know that this is an highly political stuff,
and I should probably put this in the news thread but I though this more of an tech and programming subject rather than a news one.
I am wondering how the left over code will be maintained now.
Not gonna lie, If people someday give me money to maintain this code, even if it's the gouvernement, i will not do it man.
I don't want to shoot myself on the foot with some C code.

To begin with, It's sad to see that a big Open Source Project like the linux-kernel is now taking some political side.
Imagine being a open source russian developer who work and maintain a kernel driver since 2005 and after 19 years, the code that you put effort in is now taking away from you.
Well, you may say that happen all the time you know? ,
yes. but the linux kernel is not a simple user script that 10 people on github uses, it's the software that is being used in most server.
So, It's an important software.
