I've read a YT comment describe it as Linux Reaganomics. I don't think anything is "trickling down" if an existing sponsor already pulled out of funding an existing project to fund an ethnic cleansing supporter like DHH:

It also happens that a lot of youtubers are part of their team.

It's not more money for the Linux community, it's money to hire people that are fine with a racist agenda and pressure projects into dropping their CoCs, DEIs and whatever progressive or not regressive enough stances if they want "support".
