Der harte Kern mag mit Argumenten nicht erreichbar sein. Anders sieht es aus bei Leuten die noch nicht tief drin stecken oder bei Leuten die sich einfach noch nicht richtig darum gekümmert haben. Die Mehrheit ist immer noch vernünftig. Aber leider zu passiv. Das muss sich ändern bevor es zu spät ist.

Vielleicht grundsätzlich nicht so eine gute Idee, sich in eine so schwere Abhängigkeit von einem launischen und anti-demokratischen Milliardär zu werfen.

It is completely creepy. Think about who is behind Open AI. That's a mixture of Elon Musk, Peter Thiel (Palantir), Microsoft and others. A right-wing, anti democratic, anti-human and purely profit oriented group. The name "Tools for Humanity" is complete sarcasm. What they do with Worldcoin smells like a modern attempt of colonization. Collecting biometry, subverting critical infrastructure (financial systems), making fake promises, blinding poor people with shiny metal balls and a little bit of money in some cases.

This can be stopped though! The Kenyan government apparently banned the project - for good.

Starting from a working example is always a good idea :) then once things start breaking you might have a clue why.

Have no experience with iced but interesting. Can you share a minimal example of what you'd like to do? At least the source code of Sandbox reads fn view(&self).

Yeah sorry, confused things. It's comes closer to a Mastodon thing. The point is that a big corporation like Facebook does not need to use AGPL code as long as they can just re-implement it. Compared to the total codebase used at Facebook, re-implementing something like lemmy or mastodon does not sound like a big deal. (That's not an argument against using the AGPL)

Downvote weil:

  • Sören Hentzschel hat nach seiner eigenen Beschreibung relevante Interessenskonflikte (z.B. mozilla.de)
  • liest sich wie eine Fear-and-Uncertainty Kampagne
  • Viel Bullshit. Z.b. "Umso erstaunlicher ist es, dass es keine Absturzberichte gibt, wenn LibreWolf abstürzt. Dies stellt ein riesengroßes Problem dar". Also das soll ein "riesengroßes" Problem sein? Das ist ja genau der Punkt. Datenabfluss zu Mozilla/Google soll verhindert werden.
  • Der gute Sören hat sich wohl nie angeschaut wie viel ein frisch installierter Firefox so im Internet herum plaudert. LibreWolf ist genau für die Leute die sich daran stören.

Andere Perspektiven:

Unfortunately it's still possible to rewrite a VC-backed clone and start making incompatible changes. Think about Facebook's "threads.net". They sure did not take Lemmy source code.

$25 million? That's ridiculously cheap.

Glad to hear. I just don't get how a fascist gets elected to be president. What's the mechanism? I can think of only three explanations:

  • people are unaware or misinformed
  • people have nearly no influence
  • people actually want fascism

I really hope so.

Also fun to read this (by Google employee): https://blog.yoav.ws/posts/web_platform_change_you_do_not_like/ I literally snacked popcorn.
