No race, no gender. No problems.

Gender anarchism and race anarchism. People be just people. Social constructs shall not be a dividing reason, let everyone behave however the hell they want as long as they don’t hurt others and be happy.

Also US race concepts are kind of weird in general. I suppose the history of slavery and segregation did a number on people’s perception of race.

I’ve been noticing already. The older I am the angrier I get.

Mostly because as years pass I notice how most people is just bad people. Losing faith in humanity makes me angry at humanity.

While this is obviously not true. It is hilarious seeing that some comments call bullshit on this while thinking that violent protests have any better chance to succeed.

You gotta love the transparency.

The transparency is needed to know if the server is actually costing $5000

Not that the server cost only $500 and the rest go to cocaine and hookers

I don’t need to keep track of my bill precisely, what I want is budget transparency.

I think there may be two exceptions to that rule.

1. Accessibility. People who may have issues writing long coherent text due the need to use some different input method (think about tetraplegic people for instance). LLM generated text could be of great aid there.

2. Translation. I do hate forced translation. But it’s true that for some people it may be needed. And I think LLM translation models have already surpassed other forms of automatic software translation.

I think one of the biggest obstacles in donations is lack of transparency of what’s going on with the donated money.

Nowadays I tend to only donate to projects that have full transparency on what the money is being used for.

I don’t know if it’s the case as the presented case is not an instance I use. But on general before donating any money is the first thing I look up, and if it’s not clear I just hold my money.

But it is known that donations usually cannot sustain projects, specially “user donations”. For a project to be able to have a steady and sizeable influx of money there need to be whale donators or corporations that donate to it. Relying on user donations will always mean a very little amount of money, and I don’t think that’s going to change as most people don’t have that much disposable income anyway.

I think p2p and true decentralization is the way to go. Don’t get me wrong, fediverse is great, but is not as much decentralized as “less centralized”, truly decentralized model should be p2p. I’ve said several times that the ess centralized" model have a critical failure point and that is that instances are under a lot of pressure, economic, legal and administrative. And we are burning people out and spending all their money, because it’s a model that relies in a few number of people taking that big burden.

I think a model that the burden is smaller and more spread among the user base will be more resilient, at least on this aspect.

Also I take the chance to put up a critique on domain costs, it’s not much, but it’s part of this topic and surely they should be cheaper, as domain cost is 90% speculation and very little labor cost. I don’t know if there’s any project to democratize domain names in the clearnet, but there should be one.

Pure English should not use Latin Alphabet.

It’s back to celtic writing.

I would answer but I feel like this post is more about you trying to convince others to retire their economical support that any other thing. Or at least it feels like that.

Decision is yours, same as our decisions are ours.
