Here might lie the answer to your question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace%2C_extend%2C_and_extinguish
I used to contribute to google maps. I had the same vision you do. But then I learned about their dark way of stealing people’s data. All your contributions to google maps are now property of google. You are giving away your efforts so one of the richest world companies becomes richer. And keep abusing their users. So now I use openstreetmap.org
Discord also makes you pay with your data.
It’s purposely designed to get you in the ecosystem easily an comfortably and make your exit hard, so you stay and keep buying all gadgets from them
It is becoming each day more critical to choose open source over closed source. It’s a matter of security, privacy and concentration of power
Ah I see. I don’t have access to that store. And connect is not on f-droid store because ot’s closed source. I wonder why using a closed source lemmy app if we have open ones.
Where do you get that app from?
The realm
Endeavour OS KDE. It just works and you have access to the AUR repository, which is huge.
it’s still a proprietary centralised platform that depends on a single private entity that we trust. I don’t see why to choose that over libre decentralised ones.
