Linux remains open source, extendable, and someone would most likely maintain these ripped out modules. Just not at the expense of the singular maintainer of the subsystem inside the kernel.
Linux's master branch is actually called master. Not that it really matters either way (hopefully most people have realised by now that it was never really 'non-inclusive' to normal people) but pays to be accurate.
In this case, out of dozens of ways the word is used (others being like ‘masters degree’ or ones that pretty closely match Git’s usage like ‘master recording’ in music), one possible one is ‘slavemaster’, so some started to assert we have to protect people from possibly making the association.
The relation between a human and a computer is very much that of a master and a slave. I provide the resources, you do what I say, including self-destruction.

But you still decided to make it your personal battle to make a comment remind people that the evil inclusive people did a no no by forcing you to rename your branches from master to main, yes.
>pays to be accurate.
No, it doesn't. Source: you knew exactly what I was talking about when I said main. You also would have known what I was talking about had I said trunk, master, develop or latest.
