It’s a useless discussion open source is as good as to is gonna get technology wise. Their will always be a problem as long as profitable anterprise is what people rely on to make a living and feed their families. Fixing that requires more than open source software.

Money to live is an important point but open source is still preferable to proprietary as any company shenanigans can be found, removed and the new version shared legally.
A universal basic income would allow software authors to more easily work on less profitable projects.

No I agree, that’s what I’m trying to say. Open source is the only way to create better software, but the software we have is pretty good. Better software won’t cure what ails us.
