Now make it legal to remove all profiteering by criminal organizations & you’ve got yourself a winning combination.

I mean, if said item makes it to the banana consumer then I’m OK w/ the plan.

It’s not just them, it’s everyone, just say different times. The moment the world allowed, & even heralded, wealth extraction over wealth creation everyone lost.

You can’t always wait for something to be great to join. Most FOSS products would die w/ that mentality. The larger the userbase, the more motivation to develop. Join, comment, engage, & help to build the best product. Or don’t, up to you, but the community would love if you did.

The rhetorical question of the century.
