They stated in their previous AUA that they're lacking Linux Developers, even have positions open for applicants. So they said all Linux releases will be quite a bit behind Windows and Mac releases.
Lol thanks, I know, I'm just tooting into the wind
Tooting with ya... personally looking to switch to other solutions purely because of this.
They can only hire in Europe, otherwise I'd jump on the opportunity.
I think you can, iirc they have open positions in England.

Where did they say that? They don't even have possibilities for remote work?
I actually tried applying, EU and UK only, with some positions in Asia. US / Canada need not apply.
They recently had a AUA over at Reddit, they stated they they were lacking Linux Developers hence the delay of Linux releases across the board. So can't judge them to harshly for it either, but personally not gonna wait around for it.
Don't know anything about who they hire though.

@protonmail could start by actually attending various open source conferences. There are several of them only in Europe. #FOSDEM is the largest one (actually happening this weekend), @devconf_cz is another one, with lots of #Linux distribution focus as well.
Sending HR folks and developers to these conferences, having a stand somewhere, meeting people is a solid way to find new hires with a specific skill set.
Great point! They totally should, and I would assume they have the recourses for it too.
