I was trying to come up with a joke about how all of our users should take advantage of their “reproductive rights”, and I got nothing. Just build our release image w/ the instructions below and share the hashes if you’re able. 🧡 View quoted note →

Just FYI, these are the details for anyone who is curious. Hoping they’ll be available in a couple of months. image

No… it’s blocking FOSS grants for a project that you see as competing with your for-profit products that might be considered “evil”. Someone who profits primarily from non-FOSS products should not have a say in how millions of dollars of FOSS funding is awarded. image

Having so much trouble keeping my mouth closed today, LoL. Oy. I have to remind myself that it’s just not worth it.

It is indeed important to call out bullshit. People with financial interests in building, selling, and/or profiting from license-restrictive, “source available” products should not be involved in grant-making decisions involving free and open source projects that could be seen as “in competition” with said for-profit products. I am not complaining and am not begging for change, just calling out the bullshit. Myself and my collaborators just continue to build the better alternative; we are indeed being the change that we want to see. View quoted note →

"It worries me that no large entity/influencer has talked about this in any meaningful detail." I regularly get DMs from random bitcoiners asking about @npub17tyk...3mgl FUD & the dynamics around cold storage tool development. This is worth a read; it’s shared w/ the author's permission.

This is exactly why I've been less interested in using Nostr -- the influencer cults are everywhere and the OpenSats/Ten31/Primal cabal does all they can to channel as many new users into the cult, resulting in this kind of cringe stuff. 🤮 View quoted note →
