    Why would people get angry about a relatively benevolent rich guy who’s single handedly done more for the Linux ecosystem and gaming than pretty much anyone else?

    Is it cause he’s rich?

      No, they’ll get angry at the guy pointing out that one guy they like is actually taking their money to build a yacht collection while they can’t imagine ever owning a house.

      There are no benevolent rich guy and Linux isn’t life, the reason billionaires exist is because we pay more for stuff than they’re worth in order to enrich one man at the top of the chain.
