if i was rich i'd spend my time zapping

if i ever made a dating profile: 💘 likes: FOSS, decentralization, privacy dislikes: people who contribute to the network effect of centralized services/platforms (discord, signal, facebook, twitter/X) hobbies: writing code, looking at cats, spreading free software info

just some thoughts i wrote as a response to explain why i say "linux" over "gnu/linux" thought i'd share, thanks for the topic @freemymind 🇨🇭 also some stuff about the best license (0BSD) too, and my thoughts about copyleft, replied View quoted note → #linux #GNU #GNULinux #copyleft

linux isn't systemd; we have openrc, runit, and many more android isn't motorola/google/samsung; we have graphene, lineage, f-droid, and more the people pushing #DeveloperRegistration and #AgeVerification want you to believe there are no alternatives available that's NOT true, there are solutions out there right now: flash your phones with an alternate OS skip the play store, and download apps from open source app stores like F-Droid or zapstore, or even direct download with obtanium (or 'sideload' [install] APKs directly) 📱 linux distros go beyond the ubuntu (with the proprietary snaps anyway) and other ones who ship with systemd try artix, void, and devuan; use openrc on gentoo instead of opting for systemd 🐧 and hey, there's always BSD 🐡 #systemd #KeepAndroidOpen
