at some point i hope people do start to realize that open source means they get worked on by people, when they feel like it.

that cuts both ways. for some things it’s great, for some things it’s not. the end result can be great, but sometimes it takes a REALLY long time to get there.

i wouldn’t sweat it, they really didn’t build lemmy either. :D

i don’t think we should act like journalism was in a great place before.

FB capitalized on a weakened industry, but it was the industry itself that was responsible for that state.

they really fucked themselves by not transitioning to the new market, instead insisting that it was the customers that were wrong. all these years later, i’ve yet to see a news outlet that would be worth the subscription fee. they’re mostly recycling content from other, free sites anyway.

once the older crowd passes, traditional news outlets are done for. the ones that remain will be the ones that were providing the content all along.
