      It’s far worse than just simply ignoring what their users and customers want.

      Nvidia makes a shit ton of money off of Linux. Between what their Tegra chips were sold for and their data center products being used on Linux (most recently in the AI space), their company is practically built in its success in using Linux for all their backend and supercomputing research.

      They are literally as successful as they are, from using Linux themselves, but they treat the community like shit. They take take take, and then they go and shit on the front lawn.

      Their senior leadership is ethically bankrupt trash and can go fuck themselves.
