Doesn’t change the fact they’re annoyed every time they need to block a new person. And there will always be new FOSS enthusiasts, especially on this platform

If you can read you can realize that OP is being alienated by the lack of other topics, not by Linux.

Just use Monero

I obviously mean free as in freedom. Also, normal money (fiat) also has no inherit value. But that one can be controlled by the government

Okay, Linux phones will be the absolute freedom and make Android obsolete. Once the phones are mature enough

I’m thinking about pure Android which is open source. I could’ve written that better…

Yes, diversity is good. Talking about FOSS is also good.

I don’t think the conversations about FOSS take room away from other topics, they can coexist. So let’s aim for bringing in more diverse topics instead of turning down FOSS topics

Having reason to stay on this platform is completely dependent on wanting the advantages of FOSS. Of course people like to talk about FOSS here.

If there is another point in this thread I don’t see it

Then you choose to suffer… Go on, keep fighting against windmills.

You remind me that there really are people who want to be upset all the time. And talking to those people is always a waste of time, so bye

Just saying that you are dealing with passionate people who will not stop. You can either realize and accept that or be annoyed by them forever

Reported…

There’s also the side of hope for a free currency accessible to everyone

Android is good. ChromeOS is just normal linux turned against the user

The difference between our advertising and that of the megacorps is that ours is actually driven by passion and love for what we use and create. And that passion won’t stop.

But it is really important. If you don’t care about free software, what’s stopping you from going back to reddit?

You found the solution yourself: Start to care about Linux :')

Totally different. Our algorithms are open source.

I really hope they also license the code under the AGPL, otherwise the product would not be as good as mastodon in my opinion. See https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html

Good tip

I see no point personally in actively using more than one account.

If you want many users registered on your instance, I suggest you make the server about a general topic people can identify with. E.g. programming.dev is generally about programming, so it hosts communities for all sorts of programming languages. It seems like you like art, maybe make the server about art generally or a (popular) direction of art and advertise your instance with that. I don’t think we have an instance about art yet
