Yea but no, if noone gets paid noone can afford the goods. The money carousel has to go one.

Remember kids:

IRC is free.
IRC is a open standard.
You can run your own IRC server.
IRC doesn't collect data on you and sell it.
You can still moderate your channels via invite, voice, and ban modes.
You can run a server on a 486.
IRC doesn't try to up sell you on "nitro".
IRC doesn't need to make money to make some VC happy.

Its not like there is a magic switch or a money printer in the basement.

You need to reengineer every industrie to its core and yes that takes time.

And neutrality doesnt mean there is no impact until then. Please have some comon sence or do it yourself, we are all part of the Problem and the solution

@my_actual_brain @nixCraft These didn't pay enough to the manufacturer - but maybe you could step in...

@DarkSheepArts @Terminhell @nixCraft Being able to hold the literal fruits of her labor after years of operating in the thankless realm of tech probably goes a long way to reestablishing a sense of control and how her work actually does something tangible and positive.
@DarkSheepArts @nixCraft A surprising amount of tech in that area too. But if I had to guess, it's more to do with disconnecting from most tech. Surrounded by tech full time and wanting to 'touch grass' or something.
