开源之后是什么?

1作者: fxtentacle3 个月前原帖
GitButler融资1700万美元;我留下了一条讽刺的评论。这是我有史以来最受欢迎的评论。我说我们应该解决日常问题。获得了383个赞。我还收到了许多关于为什么风险投资不会投资于有用产品的解释。 开源在一个工作能养活一个家庭的时候达到了巅峰。现在,工作市场效率如此之高,以至于很少有人能在日常工作后再为世界提供免费的软件。结果是: 商业软件越来越糟糕。 微软决定200美元的客户终身价值已经不够了。苹果也在推出全系统广告。在人质情况下,用户无法用钱包投票。没有替代方案,大投资者不会资助会蚕食他们自身投资的微软或苹果杀手。 我们都经历过公司将利润置于一切之上的情况。我们希望能有开源替代品,但谁能负担得起去构建它们?尤其是现在公司利用人工智能“重新实现”开源软件而不受许可限制。 回到共享软件的时代? 成立软件开发合作社(像好市多,但针对应用程序)?

GitButler raised $17M; I left a snarky comment. It&#x27;s my all-time most popular. I said we should solve everyday problems instead. 383 upvotes. I also got a lot of explanations on why VC money won&#x27;t be invested into useful products.<p>Open Source peaked when one job fed a family. Now the job market&#x27;s so efficient that few can afford gifting free software to the world after their dayjob. The result:<p>increasingly shitty commercial software<p>Microsoft decided $200 customer lifetime value just isn&#x27;t enough anymore. Apple, too, is introducing OS-wide ads. Users can&#x27;t vote with their wallets in a hostage situation. There&#x27;s no alternatives, big investors won&#x27;t finance a Microsoft- or Apple-killer that cannibalizes their own holdings.<p>We&#x27;ve all experienced companies prioritizing profits above all else. We hope for Open Source alternatives, but who can afford to build them? Especially now that companies use AI to &quot;re-implement&quot; OSS without licensing restrictions.<p>Back to shareware?<p>Start software development co-ops (like Costco, but for apps) ?
