The patch

I will say about only the first sentence.

Remove some entries due to various compliance requirements.

Can we clarify what these various compliance requirements actually are?

I think it's not enough explanation.

The political choice can ruin Linux user

Let's assume Russians made a compatibility of some hardware.

Then he removed with one patch.

Then who will maintain that?

That hardware user now has several problems because of one patch.

Open-source should be not political

What about other global conflicts or countries in crisis?

Do we need to say 'This country is alright, or not?' to America?

If yes, now we don't maintain software, we just rely on America.

It's not good definitely, and really.

You will say "You're loving Russian government"

And I'm not.

I don't like the Russian government, Putin, and I want to support Ukraine.

but, why do Russians need to be removed because of the Russian government?

I mean, look at them. They didn't commit any crimes; they just lived in and were born in Russia.

and removed because of that?

Conclusion

I like open-source because so many different types of users can unite on one important thing, Code

and now, it changed. To worse form.

I want to say open-source should be not political.
