    Lemmy is free software licenced under AGPL and that’s what matters.

    I wouldn’t use proprietary app myself, but this is individual choice and those apps won’t hurt the ecosystem because they can’t break the server’s code.

    Christ this is cringe.

    The OSS and privacy communities really will bitch until absolutely nobody listens to them.

      Always has been that way, at least for the loud and hypocritical fraction (they still use tons of proprietary stuff, they just don’t talk about it)

      I pity the sane supporters of privacy and open software that don’t treat it like a cult, getting thrown into the same pot as those clowns

    Just like with Threads, this is post number 2920 saying the exact same thing over and over again and bitching about someone having fun. I really hate these coordinated attacks here.

    This “holier than thou”-rhethoric and superiority complex really starts to get annoying.

    Feel free to donate your car, TV, PC, smartphone and kitchen appliances or turn them in to the nearest recycling center, because their schematics aren’t freely available as well.

    This also spares you the need to wipe the chips of every commercially available electronic, because the microcode of those chips is not FOSS.

    Also the Cisco infrastructure that acts as nodes for the web aren’t FOSS, so please refrain from further use of the Internet.

    After that you can claim to be the literal Jesus Christ that saved the world from evil software
