alt Hacker NewsThis is the least informed take i've ever seen.
I worked at fb, and I'm 100% certain we sponsored VLC and OBS at the time. It would be strange if we didn't sponsor FFMPEG, but regardless (as the article says) we definitely got out of our internal fork and upstreamed a lot of the changes.
I worked on live, and everyone in the entire org worships ffmpeg.

You make a lot of money, Meta makes A LOT of money.
doesn't matter how you worship ffmpeg if a company, which makes billions by destroying our society, gives a little bit of handout back.
So good for you? Bad for ffmpeg, society and the rest of the world.

I never said they didn't sponsor them, it just isnt enough, not even close.
and I know the teams love ffmpeg, there are some great folks at meta just not a lot in the c suite
