I think most FOSS zealots simply despise capitalism in general, they want everyone else to be poor like them. Kinda like socialism.
One well known exception to your comment is Linus Torvalds. He didn't mind moving to the USA to make some good money after being a student who could afford a whopping 386! And unlike some people believe, the GPL does not restrict a programmer to make money.
Can’t import the keys.
You mean the one mentioned in the Pinned Comments for librewolf-bin in AUR ?
It’s about giving rabbits cancer so we can test new cancer drugs on them. Assuming we make that illegal, how do you propose new cancer treatments should be tested?
I've read an interview with a doctor who was outraged that at medical school he learned nothing about food and nutrition. Therefore he decided to go live for more than a year with indigenous people in Africa, and study them, taking blood samples. Conclusion : These people in Africa have no cancer at all but yet they do die (unlike in the West) because of other diseases because of no antibiotics. These people do hunt and with that getting physical exercise so to say. These people also fast sometimes because sometimes they simply have no food. This doctor, back in the West, now talks to his patients and asks them about their bad life style habits and he said that "we" in the West we do too little physical exercise, we eat too much and too often. We have an unhealthy life style. Fasten from time to time is good, it gives the body time to relax. So I would say : How about putting the insane millions spend on the massive medical industry in for example "sugar tax" and informing all people about a more healthy life style. Abolish McDonuts and B*rgerKing and KFC, and learn to not over eat. I've read that in the blue zones in Japan people have learned to eat for 80% instead of eating more than that.
Found the article, here's a translated part :

We eat too much and too often. In Tanzania they only ate when there was food. Sometimes fasting is good for your body. . Even though he didn't learn anything about nutrition at his education (already now) he was fascinated by it at the time. After his studies he wanted to examine health at the place where man comes from: East Africa. Kuipers lived by the Hadzabe, a thousands of years old tribe of hunter collectors. To talk to them, he taught Swahili. He lived with them, slept in a cabin, and later a land cruiser with solar panels on the roof, in which he had set up his own lab. He examined their BMI (Body Mass Index), nutrition, took blood, stool, and breast milk samples. Although there is hardly any health care for this strain, the Hadzabe are slim and fit, have hardly any cardiovascular disease and cancer. They have a varied diet and move a lot. The transition to a western hospital could not be greater for the young doctor. Especially the abundance stood out. In Africa people die because there is no antibiotics at the time. Here there are people who receive chemotherapy for millions of euros, but still smoke. . As a cardiologist, he is surprised to hear little about the effects of lifestyle and nutrition on the heart at conferences. Much more often it is about pills and medical devices, and the meetings are sponsored by the pharmaceutical industry. Sometimes I hear: There's not enough evidence for the effects of lifestyle. No, because few major studies are done: It's not funded by anyone. There are a lot of small studies that show that a better lifestyle helps. Let's not pump a billion dollars into another cholesterol reduction study, but into a big lifestyle study.
Thank you.

That is a question that deserves its own thread. Just today I got again annoyed seeing how often mainstream press is using Twitter tweets and Twitter videos in their articles :( Good thing is that a significant amount of journalists got off Twitter and moved to Mastodon or something else. What does it take to get lots of open source projects, politicians and public services also move away from Twitter ? Should a new non-profit organization be created to promote leaving Twitter and help people choose for the Fediverse ?
Yes. Glyphosate was reauthorised for further ten years in the EU :(
Is MS Teams the only viable alternative ?

With etherpad-lite the default is guest mode and no protection at all (but I've seen that with plugins user accounts can be made). With Hedgedoc and Cryptpad user accounts can be made and I think with that "private" protected pads are possible.

A few days ago I was commissioned by the energy and environment section editor at The Conversation to elaborate on my contribution to the recent Guardian
Framasoft did a great job on Mobilizon! Good that they go for a healthy approach and not eventually end up with burned out developers and maintainers.
Yes, indeed. After posting this I did regret it later on.
I can imagine that the guy wants to secure his network and is maybe paranoid about people breaking in which seems fair to me, and after all computers and networks involve subtle power structures as described in BOFH. I guess the "now get of my lawn!" remark is a typical and "normal" remark in some states or regions of the USA. Someone from the UK or Ireland could made say instead "sod off!" to end a conversation they think deserved to be stopped.
Looks like I may finally be trying out Librewolf.
I like the out of the box experience of LibreWolf very much but it will not work well for all websites in my case. Luckily Firefox and LibreWolf can be installed and used at the same time without any issues.

Many people probably won’t be bothered by these things, but I am. I don’t want to pay full price for something that I don’t truly own. I miss the familiarity. I miss the reliability. I miss feeling like it’s mine. Dependable. Trustworthy.
Picking my old guitar up again has never looked so appealing. I think I want to go back to investing more time, money, and energy into things that aren’t connected to the internet
Upvoted.
Firefox ESR is like LTS. It would mean less work for LibreWolf maintainers and less upgrades for the users.
Yes. My point was that by using Firefox ESR as base the update cycle would be much slower which I would welcome.
