RE: https://meow.social/@chirpbirb/116353417991880194 When I was first exposed to open source software many years ago, I didn't think it was going to work out. Clearly I was wrong. Back then, I didn't have quite the framing for why I thought that - because the thinking wasn't solely economic. These days, after a lot of time with volunteer organizations, it's because volunteer ecosystems without social compensation for their participants collapse in flames. Dealing with assholes requires a big pay check.
