What will happen to the FSF and GNU/Linux once RMS and Linus Torvalds die?

What will happen to what when who die?

Red Hat will take over and eventually kill it

>implying there is no a viable replacement in Sup Forums to a stinky neckbeard freetard and a decent programmer with "just werks :^)" principles in mind

There are people who can take over Linux kernel maintainership. There have actually been organizational changes specifically to account for Linus getting hit by a bus. I am worried that the replacement won't be so outspoken and it will suffer under design-by-committee though.
The FSF does more than just support rms so they will continue, dunno if they will get a knew evangelist though.

RMS doesn't write code so the FSF will get a new less autistic leader and be just fine.

...

W-why do they s-sit like that?

Poettering and Red hat will take over. Are you guys ready for systemd to be in the kernel itself?

Can you imagine the fumes coming off that seat?

Also, the community will divide even farther and Sup Forums will shill the shit out of *BSD/Windows/OS X

>inb4 it's probably some pajeet or spaniard screen this post

The better question is: How long do you think we have until that happens?

Potentially nothing.

If it's anything like that recent atom python extension, some startup will graciously offer to be the maintainer, and then ten minutes later embed ads in it. If you think the Amazon search bar in ubuntu is bad, you might want to start building your own kernel now in preparation for our gloriously ad encrusted future.

Remember there's always the risk of him being replaced by some tranny. Stallman MUST live

20 for ricardo and 35 for leenus

>there are atom extensions with ads

RMS is basically the baby boomer equivalent of Chris Chan but instead of social security the FSF acts as his tugboat.

Even according to him he doesn't have the strength to even type out responses to the emails you write him and has retarded unpaid interns do it. Once in a blue moon he goes down to universities in socialist Latin American universities and eats things he finds on the soles of his feet. He won't be missed.

Linus at this point acts as a benevolent dictator but Linux has enough corporate backing and dedicated coders to keep it afloat.

Have you checked out his blog - RMS is already to the left of Noam Chomsky.

Leah Rowe will become president

RMS doesn't have any current value now that he's admitted he doesn't actually care about freedom that doesn't line his pockets.

As for Linus? ...eh he's just a maintainer really, we'll see about how that goes.

As much as I might disagree with his methods with regard to systemd, I've met Lennart and he is a pleasant mensch in person.

...

SYSTEMD/Linux

>now that he's admitted he doesn't actually care about freedom that doesn't line his pockets
wot

I think it's role reversal of 'manspreading' and how some yankees in japan sit

Actually, mental illness aside, considering his stance on foss, privacy and security, it wouldn't be that bad. And unlike Stallman he actually codes.
But really, Linux is foss, anyone of you can become figureheads for it as long as people listen to you. As for code, the people who program Linux don't care about Stallman or maybe even Linus, most code comes from corporations who need Linux so Stallman and Linus dying won't change anything.

Sauce pls

The superior unix variant will become defacto, minux
