Wikipedia, Whirlpool, GiHub are the only big sites I can think of which resisted going commercial. They may still be selling user data though.
Can you think of others?
I don't get your argument. FreeTube is nowhere near as big as Wikipedia or GitHub. Are you not using any free software?
LibreOffice, Gimp, System Informer, Nushell, Thunderbird, Firefox, Steam, this Lemmy instance, Matrix, … I don't know what to tell you. I can go through all the applications and websites I use and I'll have a hard time finding some that sell my user data.
My point was about free apps going commercial (not about selling data).
Give FreeTube time to get bigger.
Open source cannot be commercialized.
Steam is commercial, Firefox received about a million dollars from Google to set it as the default search engine.
@sqgl @Kissaki They'll prolly get dmca'd first
