I'm going to rant about open source a little, I am so sorry.
So much of open source favors people that ~ have time ~ That usually means:
- They aren't caretakers (i.e. they don't have children or elder family that have care needs) or can rely on a partner to do all of that in their stead.
- They can work long hours outside of their 9-5 jobs which excludes many Disabled people or those that have chronic pain.
- They already have a high paying job, they have health insurance.
@hbuchel So much of hiking favours people that ~ have time ~ That usually means:
- They aren't caretakers (i.e, they don't have children or elder family that have care needs) or rely on a partner to do all of that in their stead while they're out in the mountains.
- They can hike long hours outside of their 9-5 jobs which excludes many Disabled people or those that have chronic pain.
- They already have a high paying job (can afford hiking gear), they have health insurance (if they get injured)
