True, but it seems like they were mostly united by just having Russian e-mail domains. Some also worked on support for Baikal CPUs, but they are essentially a failed product now.

Also, the personal response of Linus is a clear F*** you to Russians in particular, so he kinda cleared this out, at least on the level of "I don't give a damn about Russians whatsoever, they're evil"

Yeah well getting invaded by a country twice in living memory will do that to you.

Germany's like: "uh-oh"

Germany is repentant of their past.

Russia wants to return to it.

Both.
