Unruffled

Because hardly any popular 2fa authenticator apps have implemented sha256 yet. No point putting the chicken before the egg.

I switched from containers to total cookie protection just for quality of life. It takes a lot less micromanagement of settings and still provides strong protection. I’ve not looked back since, and yes, I think it’s more than sufficient for most people.

Because “you don’t get rich by paying your bills” according to them.

So long as they can pocket a few hundred milion from the IPO, Reddit management couldn’t give a monkey’s about any of their milions of users or the thousands of communities that made Reddit valuable in the first place. They are quite happily flushing all that down the toilet to get their big pay day. Why didn’t they just go non-profit like Wikipedia? That’s the only business model that makes sense for Reddit and is sustainable. But then nobody gets to become a multi millionaire, and we can all see which would be the bigger tragedy for u/spez.

So he reckons that without locking out free downstream users, Red Hat would go tits up and the whole Linux ecosystem would fall into the hands of hackers and hobbyists? Fine by me.

I like Jeff Geerling’s response:

Red Hat: those who use open source code and don’t contribute back are “a real threat to open source companies everywhere”

I call them: users.

I fight for the users.
