This attitude is toxic and will drive off other projects that aren’t associated with crypto. Once you have to factor in political risk with your source hosting, other alternatives become more appealing.
At this point any project that’s even vaguely controversial ought to be looking at fully decentralized solutions like Radicle.

- iamnothere 3mo ago“Don’t be a scammer” “Don’t be an AI bro” “Don’t be a Russian” “Don’t be a fascist” “Don’t be an antisemite” “Don’t be a (insert boogeyman here)” “Don’t be a sympathizer” “Don’t be an enemy of the state” These words are manipulations, and they will eventually catch up with you.

- b40d-48b2-979e 3mo agoComparing crypto scammers to political dissidents is a WILD slippery slope strawman.
- iamnothere 3mo agoYour willful lack of understanding is remarkable. There are non-scam uses of crypto, although I admit that there are more scams right now than non-scams. Regardless, painting all crypto devs as “scammers” is as absurd as painting political dissidents as “subversives” or “traitors”. It’s manipulative language, and it opens the door for classifying other software as “good” or “bad” based on highly flexible public opinion.
