Oh well, there goes the removal of my monthly donation.

Knowing this is a volunteer project, I'd never request renumeration. If I were contracting with a large company, I guess I'd charge 300-500 per day. That's just based on quotes I get on LinkedIn, as I've never worked as a contractor. Also I couldn't have it interfere with my main job, where I'm also on call, so it would be lower priority.

I have the experience, but not the energy nor passion as I am almost burned out already. I hope you find some awesome people.

How's it tinfoil hat? It's very clear how much tracking is going on if you don't subscribe. None of this stuff is made up.

It's more like blackmail tbh. "Pay or i'll track the shit out of you and sell the data to advertisers". I can see why people are put off, and I am also. And what's the guarantee if we pay that the data isn't collected and sold anyway?

I'm guessing the dev is cashing out and probably doesn't expect Lemmy to last.

If you have to tell somebody you're the alpha, then you're definitely not the alpha.

If I'm on call and out somewhere, I don't want to have to carry two phones.

Which will accelerate the destruction of the planet. Yay!

I used to be a techy cat person, and then I got a dog. Now I'm a techy dog person.

Meta needs to be split up at this point, as do many other tech companies.
