During the holidays I always see a ton of activity in open source libraries. Age old bugs get fixed. It makes me wonder how much better the world could be if these people weren't working full time at retarded corporations and could focus on things that make a bigger impact. Pretty backwards huh.

THIS IS WHY WE LAUNCHED OPENSATS. LONG TERM NOSTR AND ZAPS WILL HOPEFULLY PROVIDE FOSS DEVS SUSTAINABLE SUPPORT WITHOUT A MIDDLEMAN.
I see your point, but that means that collaboration make bigger impact for the community not for the people. There's no incentive for collaboration on open source libraries. We do just because can help us, or help who use it.
Tip them in cryptocurrency for their contributions on nostr git. Disuse or misuse paid corporate products, and convince others to do the same. Attract users to nostr and encourage them to also tip the creators of their open-source tools.
The optimistic view is we have an army of miners working at fiat corporations - extracting fiat to convert into BTC. We’re digging a tunnel to the future.

Agree πŸ’― while it was raining here for two days and got stuck in the home. No gym no tennis and other stuff. But it gave me opportunities to fix my learning curve, seedsiners and sparrow wallet and backups. I am so satisfied but in the other side lost outdoors but will be back and up again soon.

It's true. I spend all day frying my brain juggling dozens of stupid requests from management. Last thing I want to do after work is hop back on the computer and code.
