I know... I was not telling you, this is the wrong forum or something in that way. I suggested to add a mention there, because people interested on free software looks there not here.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Where is the Turbo button in FireFox? 
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

I had a game where you could fly planes. If you turned on the Turbo, it ran way too fast to be able to control the plane. Ah, those were the days.

Complaint about the growing use of chat services like Slack, HipChat, and so on, for communication by open source projects is that these services are not open. You put your gripes in and you shake it all about~

From the article:
"Full disclosure: my employer makes a Slack alternative."

|
|

yea, but he also says "All my concerns about the use of Slack type chat services apply equally to its competitors, including my employer’s."
The article raises good points...

I respectfully disagree. Being open source vs proprietary has no bearing on being Synchronous vs Asynchronous or whether you can link and/or pull content.

Really? I've used such systems, and they definitely suffer from those "features".

But that's not an issue of "open source" vs "proprietary", but of fundamental design.

True, but it is an issue of it being "closed access" and "proprietary"

for communication by open source projects is that these services are not open.
Which is the point.
Look, this is how I approach open source:
- You are free to use whatever I write.
- I will most likely ignore anything you attempt to contribute to my project because the premise is, you are an idiot and don't have a clue how to write code, not to mention in the style and architecture that I expect it to be written and that meaningfully contributes to my code.
- I do not want to talk to you, see you, get pull requests, or in any other way know that you even exist unless:
a. you are already someone I know and trust
b. you are someone recommended to me by someone I know and trust - If critera 3a and 3b are met, then and only then may you join my private Slack channel.
Open source does not mean "open to idiots and their idiotic chatter."
(OK, I should have just said that.)

From today, we’re dropping Google adverts from GroundUp. The Google advertising model is broken: not for Google of course, which is massively profitable, but for us, the publishers who have to put up with poor quality, misleading adverts in exchange for small change. Their ads are down, let's give them lots of traffic!
