Shout out to open source devs. You could be working for big tech or in some random startup. Instead you build freedom tech and open infrastructure for humanity.
You’re doing one of the few things that makes the future feel hopeful. Truly inspiring. Thank you.
Is this a "shoutout to me" post? 😆
Jk I 100% agree. Love the work you're doing.
no, to my heros
Plenty of us have tried to run random startups, only to learn that you cannot profit off open source while sticking to your principles.
I'm suspicious of any startup product I see that claims to be both profitable and open source. There are ways to accrue value through private information networks, but not by selling software that is built on open source foundations. Especially not now with the marginal cost of software production (and replication) dropping to zero.
(This is a good thing, btw. IP, closed source and licenses are artificial, not-long-for-this-world moats and an impediment to efficiency gains, technology composition/evolution and deflation)
True. Very inspiring. Blessed&grateful. Thank you for making this world a better place 🗽
It's awe inspiring. Thank you devs.
Working to make local and small businesses less or not dependent on big tech—is also a good freedom tech mission.
You're welcome.
Grazie from Florence 🔥🇮🇹🚀
So what if I do that, too.

Open source devs are quietly shaping the future while everyone else argues about it. History is kinder to builders than commentators.
