Colleagues. I don't feel like having to publish 20 disclaimers here to clarify exactly what I mean. People who want to understand my message will understand them. You should not look for too many "double-bottoms" or "hidden messages" in them. Do you have a problem with the "superficiality" of my post.... so be it.
DETRUMPIFY YOURSELF Buy european products Travel european countries Vote pro european parties Defend european values Use european technology Use european opensource Invest in european companies
There are worlds of a difference between a project like chromium or Android, which is basically dependent on Google, or random little open source projects run by some fellow nerds. The latter kind of open source is always perfectly fine IMHO, unless the people are confirmed assholes. And there is a wide middle ground containing a lot of the open source ecosystem.
I think there is a valid point in avoiding heavily corporate dominated open source, but this is just a few big problematic fish in a huge ocean.
