In this episode, Schalk speaks with Steven Vaughan-Nichols about various topics. We start by discussing Rust support being added to the Linux kernel and its potential effect on Linux security and performance. We then move on to how open source is not a business model, but a software model, and how this has impacted decisions made by formerly open-source companies.
The Fintech sector appears to be ready for disruption by open source, and Steven discusses a few initiatives that are driving this. We also discuss the Twitter debacle and the decisions made regarding open source at Twitter. We consider if Mastodon is posed to fill the space left by Twitter and what is essential for the Open Source ecosystem in the coming years.
