GitHub ain't the only code-hosting service out there. If the terms of service become onerous, I'm gone. The FOSS world is immune to the Evil Empire's monopolizing machinations. +1. Very much true. |

RedHat, their lackey Poettering, and systemd are the "Evil" within FOSS. As their hegemony takes hold it will become harder and harder for independent and alternative projects to be sustained. GNOME has just received $1,000,000 from an unknown benefactor, which is most likely RedHat. With that kind of money directed toward a SINGLE PROJECT the mainstream distros won't pay much attention to anything else. RedHat and systemd are POISONS that should be purged from FOSS. But what the **** would you know? All that you can do is click ersatz "buttons." |
