  • I have the radical idea that when I own something, I should actually own it.
  • I’m a software engineer, both professionally and hobby. Developing on a non Unix platform is bullshit
  • HaikuOS is 20 years too late
  • What is the alternative? Windows is user hostile ad infested crap, MacOS is a prettier flavor of user hostile ad infested crap. The BSDs have their place, but a daily desktop or laptop isn’t really it.
  • Copyleft FOSS or GTFO
  • I don’t do a massive amount of customization, but the things I do I want to have. I know that will be the case with Linux. Who the fuck knows with closed source software
  • When I find a bug, missing feature, or something just isn’t right I can fix it, file a bug, or just talk to the actual human beings who wrote it. Good luck with any of that in non-FOSS unless you are spending $$$ on a corporate account.
