I like coding and singing, and I own too many instruments I can’t properly play.

I don’t know… did he achieve anything lasting? Are we better off? Is he? He tried something, it didn’t work. I’m not convinced he did it out of the goodness of his heart amd I’m fairly certain he did not envision a life sucking off the Kremlin just to remain safe. Don’t get me wrong, this could and should have crippled our trust in all governments… but it didn’t.

You’re a woodworker. You’ve developed skills that only few have. Carpentry Inc. approaches you regarding a partnership: you share your skills, they offer you their platform. Win-win, right? Now Carpentry Inc. decides to adapt the knowledge you provided, cutting you out of everything. You’re powerless against a multi-billion corporation. All your years of work are gone. You’re nothing more than an afterthought.
That’s more or less the playbook.
Damn, I think everyone missed that detail! We’re talking about two completely different companies here – my mind is blown! Just look at the Hemming distance between “Google” and “Meta”! I’m convinced! Meta will never follow Google’s footsteps.
Now how about you take a nice, cold shower and re-think your comment.
I see where you’re coming from, but you’re underestimating scumpanies like Meta et. al. https://infosec.pub/post/400702
In an ideal world, your suggestion might work. Unfortunately it will fail in practice. How are we to determine when it’s not too late to migrate?
Personally I don’t care for those users. If they want to blindly follow their piper, let them. But I don’t want that cancer ruining more OSS.
Nah, I have a somewhat functioning brain, Ka$h wouldn’t let me in :(
