yes exactly, my problem is not the money. I don’t expect these project to always be free and I support those I can, sponsorship is good. These giant tech firms have used free projects all the time to make money without providing any support so its fine that they’re supporting them. My problem is that I do not trust Microsoft at all.
I’ve never heard of the Halloween files I just looked it up and that’s just so crazy. I don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors in their c-suite but I wouldn’t be surprised if this fund is a way to get their hands into open source projects. Like you said there’s no explicit proof so it’s best to be cautious.
