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.

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.
Just had an extremely energizing call with our core SeedSigner contributors (@Nick Klockenga, @Keith Mukai, BitcoinPrecept & @npub177zf...dp8e) -- things are moving so quickly with the multi-language initiative. So exciting, feeling super blessed.
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 →
