If they were good then they would give it away and not become a billionaire
Torvalds is probably the closest example we have to revolutionary betterment today and he’s not a billionaire
Yeah, Torvalds is a great guy, i love that he hasn't become complacent and enshitified Linux
I've seen optimistic estimates that Linus makes ~$10 million per year from Red Hat stock. Even if that were true, it would take 100 years for him to be a billionaire. Can we focus on the actual billionaires before coming for him?
No one was coming for him

Sorry, misread that!
