    It’s really a bummer seeing how much childish drama is in the Linux dev community.

    I am not nearly a good enough dev to contribute to the Linux kernel, but I am working my way towards that point currently at night after my kids are in bed. Be the change and what not.

      That’s a good way to take a bad situation and make it better. Good luck! Maybe I’ll join you one day.
