- How do you feel about ads on the internet?
- What are your thoughts on the sustainability of FOSS?
- Ads have made so much of the internet borderline unusable, to the point that browsing without an adblocker is not an option.
- It remains to be seen, but I'm hopeful. The biggest issue is compensation for open source devs labor time. I think the liberapay / patreon / recurring donation model, is the best way forward. Devs don't need much, and most of the software we use every day is worked on by a small number of people, who should be paid for their work. If they got paid as much as the average youtuber with a patreon, FOSS would be in great shape.
