A good time to ask this question after it's used for good and we have politicians in office who aren't against the will of the people, not before

Same, but I feel like a steward of the web, I've been using it for so long lol

Not interested in that other stuff, but are there any sites you recommend that are closer to the old qa?

Yeah that's new 2014+ Reddit technology, back in the early days of the internet sarcasm was a lot harder to detect and you were expected to figure it out with context haha

lots of us don't know people expect /s and still try to be sarcastic without /s

instead we used clues like emojis to denote it's not serious like "lol" or "haha" when it's sarcastic and funny or ;-; or T-T when it's sarcasm and expressing frustration

It's mostly 16–22 year old autistic kid boys from around the western world, so you're not far off in that it's the worst demographic humanity has to offer in terms of internet discourse. I say this as a sperg who's been on 4chan since he was 16 😂

It's old internet sarcasm, I seent it many times in my life. Yeah, pretty sure it was harmless satire :) the emoticon at the end is a dead giveaway maybe—that there looks like a millennial or zillenial calling card

Open source is effectively no different than public domain in this circumstance. You don't have less rights

Making source available suddenly makes it free of copyright

Coops are companies that are worth championing in a capitalist setting, no? While money and capitalism is ever prevalent and seemingly necessary to interact with for survival, it's good to have an option like a coop. Or actually an open source based coop.
