What's worse is attacking the developer, which is not going to encourage devs to build for lemmy at all.

And they're attacking someone that was literally begged to bring his app to lemmy, with oaths to pay up. Nobody begged him to go open source. Nobody begged him to do it for free.

It's shitty to go after Dawson. Nobody but an asshole would do so. FOSS zealotry is no better than religious zealotry, or vegan zealotry, or atheist zealotry, or crossfit zealotry (just to fill out the meme of those three lol).

Don't like it? That's fine. Don't use it. But don't be a giant, gaping asshole about it.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
