Happy birthday 🎊🎉 GNU/Linux.

Today GNU/Linux is 32 years old.

It was thankfully released to the public on August 25th, 1991 by Linus Torvalds when he was only 21 years old student.

What a lovely journey 🤍

They meant gain wealth like apple founders or any other big tech. Believe he derives a salary from Linux foundation for his work. I don't imagine that being anything comparable to owning large percentage of a tech company.

True but he's also going to make more than enough to live comfortably I'm sure

Don't need to be a billionaire to have a good comfortable life

Didn't mean he wasnt earning well. Just clarified what the original comment meant.
