Garuda Linux is grate , it the best Linux Distro for gaming and , other Developer , who need to use , Arch , but they doesn’t want to spend a lot of time configuring every thing manually , in Garuda we also have the best resources , like other arch users have , i am very-much grateful for the garuda Developer community , but as the people of Bharat versh , we need to think that is Linux is free and opensource now but we can’t say that it will be the same case tomorrow , because , the latest news where , some Russians , and Indian developer from the Linux main server were kicked of from the server because of the conflict between the Russia Ukrainian conflict , so , instead of Depending on Linux kernel , let us , give some thing to our country , and make our people of Bharat versh proud that we have our own full stack operating system build by our own people , so all the Indian Developers come to gather and do some thing for our country , we will dye tomorrow , let us dye , doing some thing for our mother(ma Bharathi) , their are many think we need to catch up with , the quantum computer , other types of computer process , so think of doing something different , so we will be able to make our own decision in the our market
The thing about being open source for me is you can choose to help according to the rules or go your own way and nobody will stop you.

Look at the godot and redot scenario, those that didn’t like godot policies formed redot.
His explanation was vague. “Remove some entries due to various compliance requirements,” Kroah-Hartman wrote. “They can come back in the future if sufficient documentation is provided.”
Linus Torvalds affirms expulsion of Russian maintainers • The Register
It is not our place to decide who maintains what but the owners of the project. Sad as it is politics and other socioeconomic things may affect a project.
Like Huawei having to fork Android to build their own Harmony.
Anyway, as long as it is open source you can probably fork it and no problems will hit you, hopefully read the licensce carefully.
It is not a conflict, but a war that violates international law.
Everyone in Ukraine is suffering. Even innocent children are being killed, women, old people, all civilians.
It remains to be seen whether it will end and whether it will affect other countries in the future, if not the whole world.
I would therefore not worry about whether FOSS will continue, but whether I will survive the environmental catastrophe of a nuclear war.
But because we are a purely technical forum, I’m closing this one.
