Doesn’t refute any claims made in the article or arguments presented here.
Nothing to refute. I never said otherwise. Discord is just more convenient for people already overworked.
Just a shame another company has a stranglehold on a whole category of services that have to be used to participate in society … while developing FOSS.
Yes, it is a shame. I hope you’re doing something practical about it instead of moralizing towards FOSS devs.
Building communities and stuff that bring value to users is what really matters at the end of the day. Too many folks in the FOSS world like to stand on soap boxes.
My time is valuable, if I can have someone else run a service, then that’s time I can spend doing things I enjoy.
Self host when it makes sense, either from a cost perspective or a data privacy perspective. Everything is a balance.
Nothing will ever be as convenient as letting someone else handle your infrastructure headaches. You don’t win by complaining, you win by providing a better user value.
It’s why Steam beats Torrents and Torrents are coming back over streaming. My time is precious man.

Exactly this.
