After the #LinuxFoundation attacked #LinuxDotcom by firing all the staff and all the editors we’re left with a site called Linux.com that makes Linux look insignificant, often misused for #Spamnil ’s crude, self-promotional activities • Techrights ⚓ http://techrights.org/2022/02/02/lets-talk-linux-com/#Techrights | ♾ Gemini address: gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2022/02/02/lets-talk-linux-com/

I've noticed the goal of commercial software is to remove the features that I want and add a flood of features I don't, to the point it becomes unusable and a security nightmare. It's even to the point where I had to avoid free software projects curated by commercial companies (Redhat and their notorious SystemD, Google's Android, etc.) Soon these companies will find a way to muscle their way with CIA precision into the #FSF as they have done with #GitHub #LinuxFoundation

I am astonished people continue to rely on commercial software and truly believe it's easier to use, while battling #malware, #ransomware, and horrific security holes, especially from the disastrous commercial "security software" that doesn't do shit when the whole company was shut down after every Windows computer and server was encrypted for ransom. All that prized confidential documentation now on the dark web, customer contacts, vendor lists, prices, legal correspondence, political correspondence, etc. Boggles my mind why they go deeper into the lethal relationships with commercial vendors.
