I would like to have a professional job on an open source project, that
should be very instructive and nice for motivation. (In fact, even simply
being able to work on a linux system could make me happier).
But I think that only rare projects have paid developer, and so that bugs
can take time to be solved.
They can also be very complex depending on the software context.
Honestly, I wonder why people use "pulseaudio, systemd, upstart, GNOME" if
they are so bugged?
If people are serious about that, I can only say: ok, so, let's move to
alternatives. You'll see if things are better, and if yes, you can keep
them.
But the serious about the work is not an open-source only problem. Some
people just see their interest, other love their work. I do not know how
to explain that in English, words I know lacks nuances.
