Free Software Is Under Attack! (Will You Help Defend It?)
https://invidious.fdn.fr/watch?v=NLHIIVppdMw

Invidious gets under attack by google so if the link does not works for
you, click on "watch on another invidious instance" or "watch on youtube"

Instead of using YouTube and playing such idiotic games, why don't they
just submit the video to Bitchute, Odysee or Rumble? You don't have to
play by Google's woke rules.

I agree, or even better peertube that is free software and no company
behind it or cryptocurrency crap.
But better to tell directly to those posting videos on youtube, I do not
post mines there.

That title is extremely misleading. It's not about Free software being
"under attack" by the previous suspects: Microsoft and other commercial
developers.

It's about someone being revolted by Stallman's pro-pedo creepiness, and
the wackjobs at https://ethicalsource.dev/ trying to dictate how Free
software is used. They use pronouns on their website, so you know
they're assholes.

The only reason this is happening is because the FSF is in their
election year for their board. This happens every time the FSF gets to
the election year and all the information is a rinse and repeat of what
has already been said over the last 3 or so decades. Freedom Software
isn't under attack. It's just the same agenda from opposition with the
year 2024 on it.

That being said, I do have my own opinions about a few things. I do feel
like the FSF is a little stagnant in a few areas (things I've discussed
at length in the FSF forums), and I do think that there are times where
Richard Stallman keeps certain innovations from happening that I (and a
few others) think the FSF needs to at the very least consider. But
that's just my view on it. But RS has done a real service to the tech
industry through the FSF and his work along with Linus Torvalds has
benefited users in ways that have changed the software industry.

But to suggest this is an attack on Freedom software is a stretch. We
see this every FSF election year and it never goes anywhere. So don't
get too worked up over this. Just something to be mindful of and move on.

Nothing new there. RMS is a control freak, that’s long been known.

But this is Free Software. Problems like that tend to solve themselves
(e.g. GCC versus EGCS, GNU Emacs versus XEmacs, Linux libc versus glibc
etc).
