I’ve helped with development for the open source operating systems, one Linux distribution and NetBSD, and I’m an American of European descent. The other developers and systems people are of various nationalities, and politics are not discussed. Technology is the focus.
Over the years, I’ve been more personally acquainted with only a very few of the open source developers and users for testing. Several were conservative, and several were liberals (i.e., conservative and liberal in the U.S. senses of those labels).
Many of the developers of smaller proprietary, closed source apps written in higher level languages (easier to write) have been leftists (my experiences in commercial offices with web script kiddies, JAVA developers and the like), but most of them were young.
Once again, as long as there are no decent production quality applications, under Linux, it’s all fairly worthless for me.
Every open-source equivalent I’ve tried are poorly written, poorly or not compatible, with terrible UX/UI. I shouldn’t have to work 10x as hard to produce usable output in the games industry.
That’s why the only open-source games available in Linux are pretty much pure shovel-ware.
