Be the change you want to see. Make some games worth playing and release it as a FOSS and prove it can be a commercial success as well. See how it goes.
Asking people to release their work for free while providing very little incentives other than your own benefit aren’t going to convince people who need to put food on the table NOW, without relying on miniscule probability of popularity or success after pouring years of your time.
When most of the source of innovation in your country is brain-drain from other countries, but then those countries start fostering their own economy, so smart people want to stay.

Downvoting it isn’t going to make it go away.
Yeah, thousands of tabs seems extreme. But “you should dedicate a larger amount of time and effort all day, every day to make the computer’s job easier” is a bad take.
Computers don’t magically make things easier, it just does as it is told(as instructed by code). Computers don’t come out as a self-made human assistant that adapts to your personal needs and can magically do anything you want.
If it’s so much of a burden that smarter people haven’t figured it out, go at it. You might just fix it.
But “to make computer’s job easier” is the dumbest shit I’ve heard in a while.
Browser updates on iOS devices are tied to system updates and people put off a system update longer that an app update. So no, not as safe as OTA updates independent of the OS, as they are on every other god damn operating system.
Didn’t you know if someone doesn’t find anything new in their niche kink fetish content anymore, then “Reddit is dying”? Same with niche forums with about 100 users. No more posts?
REDDIT IS DYING
Developers also need to make money to live and survive. Why do you think you’re entitled to all of their work for free? If it’s such an inconvenience, you should try your hand at coding an alternative and giving all of it for free. We’re waiting.
This can’t be stressed enough.
Your personal preferences are not the problem of the FOSS community. If it’s a problem for you, fork it and do as you please.
Why do you think they picked the guy as the CEO?
When a religious person sees his logic used against himself.
you’re so insufferable
get fuckt
You have no idea how much information and tech-of-the-times were stolen from the rest of the world by the west to make you feel it’s unique to China. But oh so propaganda made you believe, west made all the progress on its own.
Go read some history books or whatever. You do you.
It’s downloading an app off of an app store and turning it on. Stop trying to force your narrow perspective onto everyone else.
People who are subject to censorship, in time find a workaround. Downloading a VPN app with a big green button to turn it on is not rocket science.
There are probably lots of VPN companies targetting “tiktok” as a keyword to advertise and increase their user base. So they come up first on appstores and search results.
Now, go ahead and call people searching google is not average tiktok user.
But where that data goes after you turn the VPN on, is a different topic on its own. Maybe China itself is running a whole lot of VPN networks from shell companies.
I should start posting ads and sponsors as my signatures with every comment. This is totally not the start of something awful. It makes me happy, it’s free and doesn’t cost anyone else anything.
Next I’m gonna post an image ad and randomise it. Maybe code bots to upvote it to the top. Ayy, you’re on to something. 🤔

We just need a rock slightly bigger than our moon to collide with it, giving it a flick to start rotation on its axis, then, in time, we can send in the dinosaurs for a trial run, just to be safe.
People get outraged and go out to protest. Why is this kind of defeatism bs upvoted? You live way to privileged to even think about being desensitized, while the people in some parts of the world even struggle to survive.
Enjoy it while it lasts.
The world could care less if it is Trump or Biden. But your supposition that stopping one genocide supporter is rooting for another fascists is not the worlds fault, but your own. Democracy as you still would call it.
Stop trying to claim to be the police of the world, while at the same time also sell weapons to the half of the world including despotic regimes and genocidal ones. A very good business model, but the world is seeing through it.
We all know where your priorities lie, and it isn’t Human Rights.
You must not be paying enough attention because your first point can be easily disproven by visiting any major news source and viewing the stories about the mass protests on college campuses all over the county right now.
Yes, the protests got more news time than the actual ethnic cleansing. Tells a lot about the populace.
It’s fine that genocides are happening over other countries with your blessings, But hur dur… we… we don’t want what we do to other countries happening to us. 😭
It’s about time you face consequences of your actions.
China’s use of opensource isn’t exactly in the spirit of open-source though, is it?
As an example, most companies in China don’t even release the linux kernel source code after they modify it, as they are required by GPL.
So they’re building mega-corps on the back of opensource, just like the western counterparts. That’s capitalism 101.
At the minimum, to show that Android is not a locked down walled-garden of a system and you’re free to choose what you can do with it to the point you can install a different OS on it?
I have kids and I don’t hate not losing caps.

Well cited article aren’t proof of existenceof a man. Is spiderman real if enough people cite the comics? A group of influential people could gather and make their own circle of these myths and present it as a fact. And it isn’t fucking new.

Religions and all their influence could force a lot of heavily studied subject to be skewed for their benefit. Hell, there were studies that were treated as standard making sugar and alcohol heavily beneficial for human beings. And we’re talking about a person.
