You can point at a tarball full of source code or a git repository and say &#34;that&#39;s Linux!&#34; and you&#39;re not entirely wrong, but specifically through the lens of ongoing support, you&#39;re not adequately right. Linux is also the people who make the software. Linux is the regular patches that you need because Linux is too big to be complete or correct, and when some new vulnerability inevitably gets announced, a giant C codebase you don&#39;t have the skills to modify will not save you. It&#39;s distribution channels, it&#39;s funding. It&#39;s literal thousands of interpersonal trust relationships and unthinkable hours of free(ly contributed) labor.
