Anyone got more context on this I can read through? I haven't kept up with this other than Linus's notorious attitude.
God damn if these Rust glazers are so offended by this, just go work on Redox
What does glazer mean in this context? (English is my fourth language)
(slang) Someone who glazes (to compliment or praise someone excessively in a cringeworthy way); an asskisser or sycophant.
"Glazing" is slang for over-complimenting, often to an obsessive degree
Thanks!
Just don't use it in contexts where the sexual connotation would be inappropriate
I think I won't use it ever. I think it's a stupid expression.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
