During the holidays I always see a ton of activity in open source libraries. Age old bugs get fixed. It makes me wonder how much better the world could be if these people weren't working full time at retarded corporations and could focus on things that make a bigger impact. Pretty backwards huh.

Interesting observation.
THIS IS WHY WE LAUNCHED OPENSATS.
LONG TERM NOSTR AND ZAPS WILL HOPEFULLY PROVIDE FOSS DEVS SUSTAINABLE SUPPORT WITHOUT A MIDDLEMAN.
I see your point, but that means that collaboration make bigger impact for the community not for the people. There's no incentive for collaboration on open source libraries. We do just because can help us, or help who use it.
Most of people have no clue what open-source volunteer developers must go over to finish something for you in our free time. And the times are even more hard because we many times must have parallel accounts on github zero related to our social network account because we could become targets of agency entities who would like to force us and use us for purpose. Most of us already written literally millions of lines of code for free.
Tip them in cryptocurrency for their contributions on nostr git.
Disuse or misuse paid corporate products, and convince others to do the same.
Attract users to nostr and encourage them to also tip the creators of their open-source tools.
The optimistic view is we have an army of miners working at fiat corporations - extracting fiat to convert into BTC. Weβre digging a tunnel to the future.
They work for the wrong corporations.
Agree π― while it was raining here for two days and got stuck in the home. No gym no tennis and other stuff. But it gave me opportunities to fix my learning curve, seedsiners and sparrow wallet and backups. I am so satisfied but in the other side lost outdoors but will be back and up again soon.

save me from building shitcoin things
Bullshit jobs are bullshit by design. Use #bitcoin to escape the plantation.
It's true.
I spend all day frying my brain juggling dozens of stupid requests from management. Last thing I want to do after work is hop back on the computer and code.
