No

I think, I am neither, I am

It’s a joke, Expedition 33 is not a sequel

Yeah, I was looking for that info, because I don’t trust any (especially new projects, that use AI).

How did you know, it was AI though? I am just curious

What projects are you working on, if I may ask?

You shouldn’t have to justify your identity. Sexulatity are just labels, it doesn’t really matter. Just identify as what you want / feel comfortable with!

That’s basically the difference between positive and negative freedom.

Negative freedom is the freedom from restrictions (like nobody prohibiting you from walking) while positive freedom is the ability for you to do something (like being able to walk)

I found it pretty strange in the first place, that they used OnlyOffice as a base and not LibreOffice or Collabora

Anarchism doesn’t mean, there are no rules. Read the wikipedia article on it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchism

That was indeed a really interesting read! It really made me think more deeply about software licencing. I didn’t quite understand what the authors problem with GPLv3 was though? That the companies are scared of it? Isn’t that kind of a good thing? I don’t want amazon to make massive profits off of my work, because if that’s possible to do, then that would necessarily mean, that my goal as a developer (to protect my work from exploitation while helping the common good) isn’t working. I am curious what you have taken away from the essay though? How do you protect your code from corporate exploitation?

Wow, I didn’t think, I would get such an interesting book recommendation out of this. Thank you so much!

Free software works though?? Also if you want some real world examples of anarchist-like principles being applied in praxis, without fascism, look up Rojava or the Zapatista-Movement.

Isn’t protecting workers from exploration on of the core goals of communism?

I mean, it’s less about the intention and more about the reality of software development. Just because the developers back then didn’t chose to do software development in an anarchist way (although I think a lot of them had that kind of mindset), doesn’t mean, that they didn’t do it using anarchist principles.

Alright, thanks ;)

Are you shure about that? Because that would mean, that every piece of software, that hasn’t been released to the public would automatically be free software, which would make the label pretty meaninglessness.

Sorry for being a bit of an idiot, but what is praxis?

While I agree, that Marxism-Leninism or Russian-Style “communism” have nothing to do with free software, I would also not call them real communism. Marx litteraly defined communism as a classless, stateless society. There is no such thing as a communist state. I also would argue, that free software is fundamentally anti-capitalist, because it rejects the basis of capitalism, which is private ownership of the means of production (which in this case would be software). So, in my opinion you cannot simultaneously believe that capitalism is the best way to organize software development while believing that free software is the best way to organize software development.
