Youngster, you’re very bad at a this.
No. You don’t have a clue what you’re saying and still arguing a point that was never made by me.
Please. Stay focused. If you’re anti trump we aren’t enemies. If your pro trunk we have issues.
That is all that matters until we are done.

No! I apologize for not being clearer.
The point isn’t that foss has to be cash grabbing
It has to be likeable, lovable. Something that becomes familiar and comfortable as soon as a user starts using it, WITHOUT the nefarious monetization that the corps hang on it.
Think of it as your favorite cookies a friend bakes and gives out for free. Everyone loves them, their I. Demand, and their free
I hope I did a better job explaining my position. I’m not batting A thousand today in that arena lol
- Comment on ! Mastodon new ToS from July 1has a binding abbreviation wave !!r 1 week ago:
People use the web channels that convert to cash. That’s what it is. Meta and their ilk have spent billions in marketing and persona research. They know what color makes you press a button and how to stimulate your brain into releasing dopamine when a certain product is mentioned or used.
Here’s some free advice to foss enthusiasts and developers.
Products don’t get sold because they’re better, they get sold because someone wants it. Not needs, wants. A person will put aside need for want.
Make people WANT your product and they’ll switch to it. And no, free isn’t a good enough tactic
I’m not saying Foss needs to sell its soul, I’m saying that those creators need to find a way to compete in that area.

I’ve been using a combination of brave and ddg. Work with the filtering
I was an SEO for 20+. Years. Google is dying as far as search relevancy. It’s trying to transition to a new paradigm that prioritizes payment surrounding data than ads. Much more money in the data angle, and ads as we know them will be dying soon, replaced with more insipid product placements.

Honestly, I am a peaceful guy. I will fight to protect my family, but otherwise, I trap and release bugs for Christ sakes.
But every single person director level and above needs to be slapped in the face 4 times a day with fucking trout. To remind themselves that they are simply assholes who will crumble at the slightest real world issue. ALL c suite and most directors, are fucking overpaid, underworked and ass kissed by people better than them. Every fucking one
Directors aren’t a monolith though. Many, are a mole titles given to what we used to call team leads. But if they have real power ? They didn’t earn. None of them did not one.
I have worked for some of the biggest digital companies on earth. And I am not joking.
Every single executive I met was an immoral liar.
