I don't care about OS wars, nor do I care about the freedom in the GPL sense of it.
I would like to have a diverse OS landscape so we can chose what suits us best. I would like to have most software available on most platforms.
I would like to have open standards for hardware, to be able to run what software we want on what hardware we want.
I would like to not being forced to "rent" commercial software, but have also the option to buy it.
I would like less bloated JS apps running on mobile and desktops and have instead some optimized and cleverly designed apps that doesn't require a monster of a CPU to do things that required very little computing power decades ago.
I would like to have the option to run the software locally as opposed to have to run it in the cloud.
- gyulai 4y agoSounds like all you really want is proper enforcement of antitrust laws.
- skohan 4y agoProper anti-trust enforcement in the US probably in the top handful of things you could do to improve life for the average person.
- enasterosophes 4y agoI hear you. The battle has many fronts. I venture that if we could successfully fight the GPL battle, then your other concerns would also fall into line. Then again, fighting the GPL battle is hard. If you aren't yet feeling the importance of GPL, then I still applaud you if you can make any headway on the other issues you mentioned.
