This is a painting of a mega floofy cat and is appropriately named, "Floof." It's cat number 24 in the Close Encounters Collection!

@itsfoss that is NOT okay. These people need to be sustained, supported and compensated. Don't normalise corporations and commercial interests taking advantage of public property and services without giving back.

@itsfoss While this is mostly true, this is not entirely true. FOSS is nearly universal in commercial apps (97% contains some). So almost everything. While the overwhelming majority of contributor are already employed full-time and more than half (52%) are specifically paid to develop FOSS. Take another example, 67% of contributors where paid to work on GNOME. While a lot of maintainers are not paid, it is not a fatality.

@itsfoss That's said all contributors should unionize and tear-down the capitalist system to replace it with a cooperative one inspired by hacker's ethos. Something like socialism.
Show threadNatasha Nox 🇺🇦🇵🇸Apr 28
@dallo @itsfoss A project losing 30-50% of its developers still isn't sustainable. Those devs are needed & unpaid, which justifies the meme. 😉
Show threaddalloApr 28
@Natanox @itsfoss Well I would love to see more public/social funded FOSS, but the current present is still interesting. FOSS is so effective that even corporation are funding it. Yes the meme still stand (pun intended), but I like to remind that some of us a paid to contribute to FOSS. We should generalize that (and don't forget to unionize to fight back)

@itsfoss Just like an ant, unpaid oss devs can carry 50x their own weight in workload.
Also like ants, they're attracted to sweets, so tip an oss dev so they can get themselves a pick me up.

@itsfoss Just the fact that an upside-down pyramid like this is doesn't just collapse under its own weight is such a testament to the power of passion and foss. The world does NOT need profit motives and oppression to thrive, we thrive IN SPITE of them

Show threadPrasanna | பிரசன்னா ⁂Apr 29
@itsfoss Tributes without compensation is eye-washing. The meme is supposed to trigger conversation about properly compensating the "unpaid devs". In the world of commons, free riders who make profit out of the commons should be penalized or make them contribute financially to the projects they depend on.
