I understand this is a jaded take, but it's not wrong. Open source entered a bubble because companies started requiring active open source contributions to staff+ engineering requirements. The model was never sustainable. A select few

Great reply from someone else around generational shifts. That essentially answered this for me. To give a troll response: In the current context, I guess it means someone who doesn't live on the internet complaining about issues they

Agreed. If someone has a deep enough understanding of engineering fundamentals, moving bits is moving bits. It doesn't matter what use case is sitting on top of it. Also - Let's not act like Twitter is absurdly complex. Handling t
