@kaniini that just invites a whole bunch of problems, taking money from billionaires is a very bad idea cause that's how the fediverse gets corrupted. How did these billionaires get their money and whose backs did they step on to get it? If we take that money are we complicit? Hard questions that we can avoid if we don't take capitalist money in the first place. There are better ways to grow the fediverse than that.

@nergalur @frickhaditcoming @bob the whole problem with everything today is there is a strong incompatibility between freedom and capitalism, whether talking about free software or any other freedom... Unfortunately some are still asleep on this issue...

@purism if your tech was truly ethical it wouldn't be venture funded. If you truly care about freedom, don't make freedom expensive.

@strypey monetizing human interactions is destructive to human interactions. If something is culturally valuable it doesn't need to be monetized for it to be worth anything to society. We need to move away from the capitalist "everything has to be incentivized" mentality. It's killing the planet and humanity as a species.

@strypey @cwebber @emacsen kitsplit is a venture funded for profit so "saved" is not the right word... Funkwhale and archive.org managed to rescue all the awesome music, so not a total loss, but...

@joel disgusting. Advertising is what ruined the web in the first place. enabling advertisers (even "privacy friendly" ones) is ALWAYS a bad idea...

@evelyn @Arcana if there are instances with advertising, they should be chased off fedi permanently. That shit does NOT BELONG HERE.
