Well, at least the people behind Commodore are passionate (in fact they acquired the trademark just four months ago…) and the distribution can be downloaded free of charge. They mostly sell merch, but they also have the Commodore 64 Ultimate which is basically a C64 implemented via FPGA. Their distribution also comes with its own BASIC.
I have no connection to the C64, but this seems a lot more friendly than a lot of other companies that just try to cash in on Nostalgia.
I gauntee you a for profit company will leave you behind at some point.

Still trust the new commodore owners far more than I’ll trust micro$oft
I would trust a hobo more than an escaped convict, but that’s still a pretty low bar.
I don’t think that’s a fair analogy to the new commodore group.
It’s not about the commodore group, but about the bounds, “trusted more than MS” puts on it.
It’s like someone saying, “well, I like you more than Charles Manson?” It’s almost an insult.
That’s fair
