What happens to Linux when Linus dies

>>106245124 (OP)
Some other youtube channel becomes popular, I don't know.

I didn't know that Linus coded Linux all by himself until now. Thanks, anon.

It probably carries on as normal. Top leadership could be undertaken by one of the senior devs or by committee.

i don't wanna think about it

>>106245124 (OP)
Gets immediately taken over by trannies on software foundations who are payrolled by tech giants and run the whole thing to the ground in the span of a few years, imagine Firefox situation but more rampant and brutal. You know this is exactly how it will play out.

He answered it already in this famous talk

Basically nothing will happen. People often gives Linus's far more worth than he/his peers gives to him.

Greg Kroah-Hartman likely takes over the leadership, he's Linus without hair.

Isn't he currently training his next successor? It would be stupid not to. With how particular he is, you'd expect him to train an apprentice.

Thanks Steve

He has like 3 or 4 to choose from, among ~50 (very)core devs. Most likely one is >>106245284

total clusterfuck. then we all change to some glorious chinese os for risc-v. intel and amd will go bancrupt.

Hopefully not a committee but most likely. Including plants from the Linux foundation's top corpos of course.
