schestowitz: When you come to think of it, Linus wrote about 2% of Linux, which is only about 3% of the operating system you use
schestowitz: That's a total of 2/33 %, or less than 0.1% of a 'Linux' (distribution)
Now, how stupid is that? The Linux kernel maintainer wrote 'only' 3% of the kernel himself? Wow. I'm sure, if his day had 240 hours and if he lived to be 200, he'd contribute more...
BTW, how much has R. Stallmann contributed to a Linux distribution. Ah. 0.0%.
BTW (2): Isn't it kind of stupid of you to delete people's accounts here everyday because you don't know how to stop our attempts to re-register? Perhaps censorship is not a hobby you are likely to enjoy.
Garrett was the first person to face sanctions (like muting) in our IRC channels because of his abuse; worse yet, he hijacked other people's names and then locked them out of their own accounts
People creating their own platforms means progress, whereas centralisation (like moving from blogs to social control media) is the opposite of progress
If it was googlebot, it would be possible to argue that you'd at least then get referral traffic from Google Search. With LLMs, all you get is plagiarised.
If people are willing to tolerate standard declines and enshittification (nowadays sold as "pivot to AI" or "replaced by AI" or "AI layoffs") they will pay for it some other way
