- sascha_sl 7y agoGod, why are you people like that? Article about a social issue, immediately jump back to foss. Is that all the politics the audience of HN is interested in? I could make a remark about the dominating demographic in here right now, but i'll leave it at this metacommentary. You know who you are, "foss is the most important issue" people.
