Linus admitted he uses LLMs sometimes, so now the most trustworthy developer in the history of computers is now being shat on and raged about by people who probably couldn't write a hello world app in any programming language. They're just parroting the idea that Linux is vibecoded now, but it isn't, and if anything they should be heartened by the recent decision to raise the bar for kernel contributors. Instead, they're pretending Linus and other contributors aren't trustworthy at all, based solely on a desire to feel outrage. When people correct them on these lies they're spreading, no one ever admits they are wrong and stops spreading it, they just don't respond to comments like that and continue writing them elsewhere.
Tldr; people are stupid.
You didn't answer the question at all.
I take it you're another outrage junkie who cannot help but tell everyone the kernel is vibecoded. Your feedback is only valuable in that it communicated that
Completely incorrect.
