So, I just wrote a thing: "Why 'free' proprietary software will always end in tears" davelane.nz/why-free-proprieta (it's late, and I haven't really proof read it, but if you're feeling bold, have at it. Happy to have comments here or there, and any corrections welcome & appreciated!)

Dave Lane · Why 'free' proprietary software will always end in tearsNearly every day, my kids come home from school and go on about some new app or game they and their mates are excited about.

Hah - another case of appreciating Mastodon's 'edit post' feature so I could add a closing paren(s?).

For the record, in the past 9 minutes, that post has had more than 1000 reads.

That's Fediverse-power, folks.

about 20 hrs later, it's now had 2200 reads (some of which might be pings from Fedi instances grabbing an image, dunno).
