I’ll agree with that.

merging those contributions kinda becomes an actual need of users

When you say it becomes a need does this mean that not merging them would course the projects to fail? This means that if the option to merge the contribution didn’t exist in the first place (like non free software) the project would fail.

but I still think that letting companies just fuck off and do their own centralised thing separately from decentralised DIY-like development which, to my mind, is actual freedom, might help.

Actual freedom is taking away peoples rights to make things worse. If you want an example of what happens when actual freedom is available look at the free market.

Life being worse ensures you never get any power.

Mountain biking. It’s such a huge money hole that it could never possibly be a financial investment.

That makes sense, thanks for explaining (:

I don’t think your argument makes sense logically. Are you saying that copyleft software is enshitififying because big companies are pushing too many (optional) contributions? Are you aware that software maintainers don’t have to merge the contributions these people are pushing? With MIT like software contributers don’t even have the option to merge or not to merge because these companies just make a proprietary fork.

Criminal!

Isn’t anarcho capitalism just extremely radical liberalism? In which case people do take it very seriously. I know someone who is flying to some island in the pacific soon to get away from taxes and the government.

I didn’t explain it very clearly, I dislike the idea of shares because it results in a board of directers that all have different and contradictory goals to do with the company so the only thing they can agree on in the end is making money regardless of the ethical consequences.

Although since it’s one of the best ways to invest the money you have I don’t blame individuals for buying them.

Sorry I don’t get what you mean. Of course you don’t have to invest into the hole market when you buy a share.

wait until you start running your own servers and whatnot

Oh yeah I forgot about that, I’ve already bought several computers by that metric.

After building my first pc I will never buy a pre built again. I might never buy a pc again (pc of thesius!)

Shareholders are the worst, but I can’t blame individuals for buying shares (including myself) where it’s basically shooting yourself in the foot to not buy shares.

I agree. Amazon is probably the worst big tech company.

So I guess never by a car so you can live without one.

Apples are my favourite snack!
