    I get from this that whoever made this meme doesn’t like foss, but I don’t get what is it trying to say. That foss is just a way for big tech to have software for free and that it’s production is chaotic?

      I actually like FOSS alot, I don’t want big tech taking it over and dictating how things should be done.

      I don’t want FOSS helping out google, meta, microsoft etc. FOSS is meant for society and people not for companies to make more profit and in process of that destroying society and exploiting people.

      EDIT: Just to add, I’m aginst using term open source which is taken over by comapnies and companies use it to wash themself.

        Google, Meta and Microsoft are bad. But I’m good. I want to dictate who can use open-source software and how!

      Yes, open source is bad term to be used. It only helps corporations and big tech to wash out, it’s like osswashing.

        Big tech also does open source because they are very interested in Open Source, such as Linux, the system that runs the world. Without Linux (which is open source) the world couldn’t run. All routers, servers, IoT, many devices (etc.) run Linux, Open Source.

        Any closed source app that big tech or small tech do also uses Open Source tools and libraries. And you are an ignorant.
