Yeah I’m not for UBI that much, and don’t see anyone working towards global VAT. I was comparing that worry about AI that is gonna destroy humanity is not possible, it’s just scifi.

It replaced content writers, replacing digital artists, replacing programmers. In a sense they fire unexeprieced ones because ai speeds up those with more experience.

Fair point, but AI is part of it, I mean it exists in capitalist system. This AI Singularity apocalypse is like not gonna happen in 99%, AI within capitalism will affect us badly.

Ah, AI doesn’t pose as danger in that way. It’s danger is in replacing jobs, people getting fired bc of ai, etc.
- Comment on FOSS funding is broken, Thunderbird's redesign, KDE Plasma 5.27 - Linux & Open Source News 10 months ago:
Sorry, I’m a bit nervous. So my comments might be a bit cranky.
Point is it’s not bad to get info even from 10mo ago, we have usefult text from 70s, 80s etc.
Why I made this post is because of a rule here of no memese. The point was to start a discussion about realtionship big tech have with FOSS community. Hence the meme in the first comment. Rules don’t approve memese so I posted some video about FOSS funding to post a meme as a first comment.

And you hearing old events is bad how exactly ?

from where ? I made it lol, idk if it was shared somewhere else before
- Comment on FOSS funding is broken, Thunderbird's redesign, KDE Plasma 5.27 - Linux & Open Source News 10 months ago:
Just to clarify, this post is not meant to glorify startups! Startups also have CEO and it’s same as first line in the meme.
This post is meant to start a discussion and to highlight the effects big tech having on FOSS.
It’s aginst big tech not aginst FOSS!

Ah crap, didn’t see that. Anyways don’t see why not, but whatever. Mods can delete it. This was to start a discussion about big tech and foss realtionship.
- Comment on truth of open source and foss 10 months ago:
How is it glorifying anything of this ?
It’s not saying FOSS is a confused mess, but that big tech exploits foss! And yes FOSS can and is making progress without big thech. But big tech is big investor in foss which means it’s controlling it and striving to controll it, for example threads and mastodon.
No company will invest money for anything that is not helping their cause. FOSS isn’t untouchable to be exempted from critique.

effects on big tech exploiting foss, for example threads and fediverse

Now, fedi then develops in autonomus manner, as much as possible. There are problems with centralization on fedi even now without meta.
Letting them in will only help meta EEE(embrace, extened, extinguish) it.

I think we are on same page, I am aginst federating with threads
- Comment on Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net. 11 months ago:
Same story as XMPP
- Comment on Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net. 11 months ago:
This is not cooperation, this is take over by meta. So far I see most fedi users are aganist federation with meta, I’m glad that’s the case.
- Comment on Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net. 11 months ago:
With xmpp you could chat with people on messenger just by having xmpp account somewhere else. Now you cannot. And no email is not working just fine, self hosting email is hard now beacuse you are getting blocked if you are using big tech servers.
XMPP has it’s own problems, not really pleasant user experience etc. But yes, facebook first embraced it the cut you off anyone you had on messenger.
If this happens, meta will takeover fedi.

Same how google killed xmpp, how big tech killed email. Meta and big tech are just too powerful and they can destroy, takeover fedi with resources they have.
- Comment on Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net. 11 months ago:
Tbh, I never saw that. I’d rather argue with commie tankies all day, and look through their posts then see meta and big tech ripping apart fediverse.
I just subscribe to things I’m intersted in so that’s way I don’t see extermist content or any other content I don’t wanna se. And no this doesn’t mean “i can just block threads myself for myself” because it is just individual action that on big scale has no effect at all.
- Comment on Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net. 11 months ago:
Which still doesn’t mean fedi should cooperate with meta or any other big tech, I dare to say not even with any company.
- Comment on Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net. 11 months ago:
Disagree, federating with meta will kill the fedi. It will put all power in big tech.
- Comment on Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net. 11 months ago:
Yes, that would be a great idea because it would free the email protocol taken over by all big tech.
- Comment on Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net. 11 months ago:
How you think threads is helping in that ?
- Comment on Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net. 11 months ago:
How would defederation from meta lead to killin fediverse ?
- Comment on Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net. 11 months ago:
That is naive look on it. Meta(Facebook) is a company, it’s always company interest and only company interest. The idea of fediverse is to stay out of data tracking, user profiling, not to help it in any way. Connecting with meta is workoing aginst fediverse. It might be a mistake fediverse never recovers from, even now it’s really small fedi community.
Why would we as fedi users, mods and admins help meta or any other company, for what, for their interest that they sell on “we love fediverse”, “cusotmer first” bla bla bla.
