Actual is libre and gratis

You should still be able to access everything through tailscale once you switch everything over to use local IP addresses.

Agreed, if from a corporation. FOSS services are usually also gratis, and can be compiled from source if not.

You can block instances yourself, I personally don’t like when an instance makes that decision for me.

80% of our produced energy goes to aluminium smelting.

Fair enough :)

Is Boost really that much better than Eternity or Voyager that you put up with ads?

Same, but after unlocking the bootloader, it had a very clean LineageOS install.

Exactly why I left that company.

Specifically free (libre) licences, as permissive licences allow corporations to improve/adapt the software without contributing back to the community.

I only work on software with GPL compatible licences now.

I was working for a place that was the market leader in a certain niche of simulation software. Their simulation was about 10x more efficient than their competitors. However, that version of the software is strictly off limits for the public, and made a version which they sold with a sleep statement so that it was only 1.1x faster than the next best solution. That way they could remain market leaders any time the competitors released a better version. Even though many systems rely on growing simulations to simulate bigger scenarios that could help save lives.

Just an example of capitalism impeding progress.

Anything Red Hat. Screw GPL corporatism.

Privacy doesn’t exist without the ability to compile and self host.
