Competition is useless, better to have federated networks and do videos for profit and find other ways to pay for content to support content creators if they need support. Block ads everywhere, work in those fields is better than calling for competition and creating competitor that will win over google and become new google.
There will be adblocker to block this also don’t worry.
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.
just wait until you hear about humans.txt, it really exitst here
Ah, AI doesn’t pose as danger in that way. It’s danger is in replacing jobs, people getting fired bc of ai, etc.
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
edit: thought you were referencing the meme, not the video, sry anyway, why does it matter that 10months old ?
edit2: foss funding is broken still
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.
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
It has many options inside, shows you kinda oldschool sites.
I think we are on same page, I am aginst federating with threads
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.
Yes, that would be a great idea because it would free the email protocol taken over by all big tech.
They can put as much ads as they wan’t they will be blocked, and there always will be a way to block them.
