  • I don’t want usage adoption; I want philosophical adoption which will lead to usage adoption.

    I want users to appreciate that they own their software. I want them to realize the importance of being able to inspect and use your software as you see fit (within reason).

    I want people to realize the dangers of walled gardens, and opaque black boxes that are doing who knows what.

    I hope that makes sense; I get confused and worried when people just push adoption. I’d rather people migrate because they believe in FOSS, and then setup linux boxes for their non-tech family members as a means of protecting them.

    I have a lot to say on this…but the words just aren’t coming out right now. I guess I need to get in the right frame of mind.
