@dansup I don’t think it’s necessarily bad to “sell out”, if it means keeping the lights on, or putting a roof over your head. Sometimes, people get burned really bad from doing so much work for free. If I could make a living building for this space, I would 100% do it. But, I’m a shitty developer.
And I realize that your statement is more about Gleason and Kainoa, and what they’re doing. I don’t think it’s necessarily wrong for someone to pivot and pursue their own things, it’s just that one built hate speech networks while the other got seriously burnt out and decided to go do literally anything else.
Ironically, both people are the most successful case studies for forks of existing platforms.
