@sue@glasgow.social Apologies, I wasn't really meaning to be argumentative. If it came across that way that's on me and I regret it. But to me "created without the motivation for financial gain" is not about the individual workers, but about the omnipresence of venture capitalism and the associated "enshitification" that Doctorow has made famous. If people are being paid to run a thing well rather than to capture a user population then rent seek off of it, I think it's better.
