    Instead of depending on a for profit / corpo for maintaining something like a whole language maybe that should be left to a coöp? Or at least something open source / Creative Commons so that people actually are authorized to contribute?

      Is there an open source language learning platform? I’m not very invested in the FLOSS community but I didn’t think there was anything.

        I don’t know either, I just assume that since it’s 2023 and there’s corpos, at least someone, somewhere, is thanklessly working on a FOSS language learning platform.

            Yeah it’s like, the same way “pharmaceutics” get shiv’d into “pharma” (or “big pharma”) “corporations” get shiv’d into “corpo”.

              It must be a regional thing. Personally I’ve never heard pharma by itself only as big pharma, shiv is an improvised knife a prisoner might make, and I’ve never heard corpo before. English is a huge language with a lot of regional differences. When I was young I would say wicked to mean very. If something was really fucked up I’d say it was wicked fucked up or wicked fucked.
