  • Money isn’t going to solve the burnout problem

    In my opinion, the biggest source of burnout is actually our dayjobs.

    Respectfully and meant humorously, WTF are you talking about then.

    Yes money can solve it. It can solve FOSS devs needing a day job, it can solve not having enough people to do deal with FOSS related nonsense.

    I’m really annoyed when people say that and somehow have “shame” when it comes to demanding, let’s say, $50 million from FANG to maintain their project. Just ask. And then because of that shame, they think “asking for money” is asking a few fellow FOSS enjoyers for $1-5 a month and then that amounts to like $3.50 and then yeah of course that won’t solve any problems.


  • This is not the answer to your question, but a comment. Sorry, I am aware that it may not be helpful to you.


    I don’t think TOS are very hard to read once you’ve read one or two, if you care, you should just read the TOS.

    For example, if you’re concerned about EU-US datatransfer, the privacy policy has to outline who data is shared with, so you can skim it and see if they mention sharing data at all, or if they are doing it with specific companies, or just “partners”.

    On the internet and social media, you have to transfer the rights to your content to the social media content, because it’s the only way they’re allowed to store, replicate and distribute your comments or post.

    That kind of stuff. And those paragraphs mostly look the same.
