Why can't Linux attract young developers?

Article Title: Why Linux cannot attract young developers now. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

Jim Zemlin, executive director of the Linux Foundation, claims that the Linux market position is very solid, although several key maintainers of the Linux kernel are white. Jonathan Corbet, editor-in-chief of Linux Weekly News, identified this issue at the Linux Foundation Collaboration Summit last week. he pointed out that the Linux kernel team is older than a year ago, the younger generation of developers did not participate. Why cannot Linux attract young developers now?

Andrew Morton, a well-known kernel developer, admitted that they are getting older and tired, and have not seen others investing in one thing as passionately as they used. He also pointed out that this problem is complex, because as the kernel code becomes more complex and the threshold for entry into this field is also increasing, developers involved in kernel development need to have a wealth of experience and knowledge. He said the Linux kernel team encouraged the enthusiastic participation of the young generation.

Some people also commented that this situation is also related to the computer education in the school. the current computer science education is no longer focused on underlying development and hardware interaction as it did in the 1980 s and 1990s s, it is mainly used to learn advanced languages such as python and ,. net, java, and so on.
