My understanding is that this is not terrible, only bad then? In top ten new movies this year?

Once I dropped a packet of mint seeds in the garden. Their descendants still thrive

Have you heard of our lord and savior memory management?

No, not those other false gods

Rust is both a nice programming language, and an obnoxious social movement made of a small minority of Rust programmers who are very loud

This will also help lessen the monopoly cloud flair has in Spain

Proton recently closed their masterdon account because of the mutual hostility

Cannot see image ?

Yea, I seriously tried to think of one merger, big enough to be noticed, and not willing to even break laws to show their appreciation.

The mit license allows a mix of public and commercial code run by the same company, with minimal legal issues. One can use other tactics I am sure, but this one seems good when the commercial code absolutely needs the public code .

I think some confusion here can be resolved by stating this is anti foss, taking advantage of foss, it is capitalism taking advantage of having a good code base while making sure any contribution from outside the company is minimized. At the same time it gives my company absolute control over the private part.

Usually get into arguments here! I’m not defending it, but am saying open source would be less without.

For our use case, this makes the most sense.

I’m not at all sure about the larger trend you noticed, but I know a non trivial number are doing it for the same reasons

Speaking for myself, it’s because future monetization can be easier under mit when using a foss utility and private code.

My project would not exist at all unless there were ways to make money off it.

True, others can also use that same code too, in the exact same way, but that requires quite the investment, and those of us that are doing this are banking on not getting the interest of a monopoly in that way. We are competing against other small businesses who have limited resources.

At the same time the free part can get a boost by the community.

I comment a lot in politics here, and am sometimes an ass, so cannot name this project

Sounds more like a self replicating malware somewhere, probably in some totally unrelated Wordpress plugin on unrelated sites scattered about

Sometimes much older

Yea I thought of that and have no real answer. But should that be solved, without advertising income, it would change everything

If Linux can be developed, then a public fork run the same way for browser can too. It’s possible just no interest yet.

The group of repos also is an alternate 4chan.

I have no clue about the code, haven’t looked, but it has consistent work done and some people use it. In this context, I would feel less good about the code if Pepe was not in the picture

People who support the server have greater voting rights; no revenue steam. But I think it would be cool to sell pirate plushies!

Unrelated: If you code it’s not hard to insert ads in between the comments on your own lemmy instance. It would be a cool experience but probably would create significant vitriol and site wide bannings by most, if not all, major instances for trying.

The problem for most monitization is psychological only ; many ideas would be an unwinnable uphill battle. Yes, can put ads in but also be a leper with zero traffic. You could probably put in perks if have good coding skills or can hire good skills; but if public relations done wrong then you are “poison to the community”.

You could try to do awards ( Reddit gold) but may get laughed off the platform. It’s a tough crowd

My home instance is starting to do some of this, it’s talked about a lot in https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/div0

I think the reason I switched back was because my computer was underused - a lot of the memory was free and the fans hardly ever came on, except when gaming.

But now windows uses every bit of my ram, filled up my hard disk and the fans are humming along.

Thanks Microsoft!!

Honestly, I know this is entirely subjective, but I never liked the vibes from proton especially in the last year. I’m going to use my animal instincts and just avoid them.

That said, I really need new email service so looking at options
