This Is Hurting Linux More Than Bugs

Linux and open source have a growing documentation problem. Powerful features are shipping, but many go undocumented for years and without documentation, adoption stalls. In this video, we look at Linux’s new FS mount API, which existed for over six years before proper man page documentation finally arrived. How many other projects are facing the same issue, and what does this mean for the future of Linux and open source?

Let’s explore where things went wrong—and how the community can fix it.
