All code should be free! No one should ever make a living writing code. It makes no damn sense. Writing code is the easiest thing on the planet. Asking money for it is pure greed.
I guess I should have added "/s". I really didn't think it was needed. ๐
Not what I said. You can write code, open or closed source, and make a living. Putting ads on an open source foundation is for cockroaches.
Literally the Web and Android's (Googled) ecosystem... is ads on an open source foundation ๐คทโโ๏ธ and people outside of techie circles couldn't care less about that, they just want stuff that works.
Is it really worth kicking up a stink over a single app that affects you in absolutely no way? Different strokes for different folks. Unlike the web, you have the choice of multiple good FOSS apps to access Lemmy from, no adblocker extension needed
