from where ? I made it lol, idk if it was shared somewhere else before

edit: thought you were referencing the meme, not the video, sry anyway, why does it matter that 10months old ?

Because the video is talking about current events, and I thought I was going to hear something new that happened and then I hear about 1-year old events. Thought I'd spare others the confusion.

And you hearing old events is bad how exactly ?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I didn't say it was bad, just confusing

Sorry, I'm a bit nervous. So my comments might be a bit cranky.

Point is it's not bad to get info even from 10mo ago, we have usefult text from 70s, 80s etc.

Why I made this post is because of a rule here of no memese. The point was to start a discussion about realtionship big tech have with FOSS community. Hence the meme in the first comment. Rules don't approve memese so I posted some video about FOSS funding to post a meme as a first comment.

Just to clarify, this post is not meant to glorify startups! Startups also have CEO and it’s same as first line in the meme.

This post is meant to start a discussion and to highlight the effects big tech having on FOSS.

It’s aginst big tech not aginst FOSS!
