Hi Sailors! I have a technical question... As far as i understood (feel free to correct me), some linux distributions are forked from other "mother" ones. Like Ubuntu forked from Debian. But if i understand correctly, contributing to use/develop Debian helps the forked kid (here Ubuntu) who can use refreshed mother code in his next versions....
In the wikipedia timeline, Sailfish OS seems forked from Fedora "mother" branche... Here: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1b/Linux_Distribution_Timeline.svg
Would that mean that contrubuting to Fedora helps the current/future developpement of Sailfish OS? Or contributing to KDE for the Qt parts? Or to opensuse for the zypper tools?
Using/contributing to which desktop distribution may impact positively the Sailfish code? Thanks!!!!
