I’ve seen many threads suggesting products but they often don’t mention FOSS projects, which should always be preferred to corporate software. With FOSS you are already boycotting capitalism, on either side. Free and Open Source ignores borders and shouldn’t be categorized in nationalist terms, no matter where some of the maintainers happen to live.
Totally agree. The majority of Americans are great people. Not everyone is MAGA. We need to support the good ones. Sanctions and boycotts tend to unite.
One exception would be if the project imposse a security risk because key people and servers, within the US, may be blackmailed or pushed by the new administration. We’re not there yet though. And I hope these projects and people migrate if this becomes the case.
Also, FOSS projects run by big tech are probably also wise to avoid for strategic reasons.
They’re not the majority if they can’t win an election — just sayin’.
77mio out of 340mio voted for trump which is roughly 22.6%
Not choosing to vote or speak is endorsing the establishment. We are not great people. We are dumbfucks.
Where is the logic in that? By voting you’re actively acknowledging the legitimacy of the State. How would not voting be an endorsement of anything, as you see it?
if its run by a big company then it’s just open source and not free, or do you mean something like a company contributing to the code?
