I agree, good comment. There is so much big tech in foss/oss community, like you gave example with repos and with react. People working for free for big tech. Getting something to put in their CV or just bootlickers.
Every open source or foss from company is in company interest, it will never be in community interest.
Maybe some examples would be in order.
I agree on that. I'm looking into writting about FOSS funding with examples and proposing solutions for this issue. Just that takes a long time and a meme is easier.
Sorry, I'm a bit nervous. So my comments might be a bit cranky.
Point is it's not bad to get info even from 10mo ago, we have usefult text from 70s, 80s etc.
Why I made this post is because of a rule here of no memese. The point was to start a discussion about realtionship big tech have with FOSS community. Hence the meme in the first comment. Rules don't approve memese so I posted some video about FOSS funding to post a meme as a first comment.
firefox is not that clear, they get funding by google for putting google as default search engine thus helping google. We have a problem with FOSS funding
that is a whip
from where ? I made it lol, idk if it was shared somewhere else before
edit: thought you were referencing the meme, not the video, sry anyway, why does it matter that 10months old ?
edit2: foss funding is broken still
It's not! The meme bad because it looks like it's gloryifing startups I agree on that. But it's meant to start a discussion about realtionship between big tech and FOSS, I'm not aginst FOSS at all. I am aginst big tech using it and FOSS community selling that story as good when in reality it isn't good and is just pure exploitation of FOSS and people active in FOSS community.
Just to clarify, this post is not meant to glorify startups! Startups also have CEO and it’s same as first line in the meme.
This post is meant to start a discussion and to highlight the effects big tech having on FOSS.
It’s aginst big tech not aginst FOSS!

If I'm good or bad is not the issue here. And I'm not dicatating anything. I don't really get what you want to say ?
