| I've been reading it for a couple years already, where have yall been looking? At marketing materials? See e.g. https://aphyr.com/tags/the-future-of-everything-is-lies-i-gu... (That whole series is also available as PDF; I recommend printing it, spiral-binding the printout kinda like a pirated college textbook, and surreptitiously leaving it in cafes and the like.) |

| Neither would be fucked if they were open source. Or if they had a ton of viable competition. |

| ▲ | echelon 2 days ago | parent [-] | | No. It's not. The proprietary pieces are 99% of the offering. It just wouldn't have ever worked without the open source bits. |
