I find it easy to hold these two thoughts in my head:
Some FOSS projects are unable to extract a "fair" share of the economic value their product creates.
Some FOSS projects have marginal or non-existent economic value.
Looking at the article, I see more of the latter than the former. If this had been an opinion piece from Fabrice Bellard, I probably wouldn't have the same critical read. Also, Fabrice has had no problem finding gainful employment. Coincidence? Who knows.
- preciousoo 1y agoFully agreed, but without seeing his actual projects, who can say?
- wanderingbort 1y agoThere is a screenshot of his profile in the article. You can pretty easily find those projects by typing in the org and username into GitHub. This was the route to check myself before responding.
