Variety is good to a point. Too many alternatives and all you get is a bunch of under-resourced and unpolished results.

You think there is a dearth of software engineers out there who can't spend time on something cool like a linux distro?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Well, yeah. Its pretty well established that there is fairly limited resources in open source. Loads of software engineers, very few contributors.

Maybe because of projects that aren't interested in the opinions of distro maintainers, let alone individual contributors.
