Seriously: this non-competitive behavior in the FOSS community is soo fucking refreshing!

Almost like humans find cooperation is healthier than competition on the whole...

FOSS til i die, please.

My God I love Lemmy. Finding a Kropotkin quote in the wild? Outside of an anarchists sub? Without specifically searching for it?

It makes me feel less alone. Thank you.

Glad to be able to quote it and receive so much positive feedback :)

I kinda feel like there's very little overlap between distro fans and distro developers. Probably because distro devs tend to know all the dirty secrets of their distro.

You go on Reddit or wherever and it's all "distro X is evil, use distro Y instead," "No, Y is terrible! Use Z!" And then you sit at a table with a SuSE developer, a Fedora developer and an Ubuntu developer and the conversation is all "so how are you guys dealing with this issue?" "Oh, I think we came up with a great solution, I'll share the patch set with you!" "Wonderful, thanks! By the way I opened up a merge request on your stuff because we figured out how to fix that namespaces issue."
