yeah, that's what I mean, there's two problems:
> how do we get people
> what do we do with the people
in lieu of a plan, find a good leader with a plan and join them
then that presents another problem:
> where is this good leader?
are you a good leader?
i wouldn't know
do you know any good leaders?
the majority of people are too concerned with other things (and too observant of the attitudes I mentioned before) to care, whether they're good leaders or not (which, to be honest, I doubt)
or afraid to not end on the winning team
anyone who forks the kernel needs to maintain it or it will rust
and they need to keep up with the competition, as in monitoring new improvements and replicating them using cleanroom reverse engineering
and they need to put all the power in the right hands
tricky
and maybe someone should make an actually not shit desktop OS, and also systemd
and that's a problem, because it's hard to find a group of people who would be up to such a task. not to mention the fact that I'm not just talking about Linux, I'm talking about fixing **everything**. which is why forking isn't a great idea, because there has to be another, cleaner, smoother way to drive out all the fucking commies other than executing them all
its a lot of work that can only be done by an incredibly talented C programmer
individual project owners are the only people who can protect their work for the community
so each individual project who has adopted the Covenant is at fault and their project is now dead and gay
you could promote projects by maintainers who are known not to buy into this, and suggest them as replacements to other SJW softwares
but the best hope for success would be if those programs ran better and had better features/ui than the traps can write
the average user does not care the politics and often neither do i. I am likely to use what I see as the best and most productive software in most cases
or it doesn't matter, because they're riding off of the success of people who are talented
remove those people and get them on your team
linux can't survive without talented C coders
jsyk these people aren't going to just abandon linux- to them, it's literally their baby
im not dumb enough to think theres no amazing traps at c code either
i think one problem is being able to pay your way onto the board, where you can make decisions
So much misinformation to unpack here

1) the GPL cannot seize control of copyright over anything. What the actual fuck.
2) No, the CoC can't "prevent certain users from modifying the software". Everyone ejected from the project will still have the right to copy edit and redistribute linux on their own. Nobody gives you access to the mainline development branch in the GPL licenses. Acess to the code and access to the master branch have nothing to do with each other.
Oof
If I were horvath I really, really wouldnt have admitted that
It looks like probly they asked for a nondisparagement agreement *after* hevath said all this shit
horvath might actually be a little slow
So uh, guys, SourceForge?
harrassed == "they threatened to fire me unless I actually did some work"
?
well she dated one of the guys she says harrassed her after they broke up
immediately she shares the blame
