    It’s great to see AES countries beginning to adopt Linux and FOSS, even if it’s approached less from an ideological standpoint of FOSS == socialism and more from staying away from proprietary Western technology (Microsoft, Apple). If it’s solely the latter, that’s still the correct course of action.

    “What’s happening to Russian open-source developers gave a warning sign to Chinese developers,” one user commented on knowledge-sharing website Zhihu.com, referring to many software makers being blocked from the open-source community just because they are Russian or not supporting Ukraine. “Software without borders is just a dream that will never come true, and China needs to build its own open-source community.” … “This new version signifies that we have gained the ability to lead the OS’ development by ourselves,” Zhu said. “I hope more users will try our new version and give us feedback.”

    This is great to hear!
