Great news, thx to all developers/contributors for your efforts!!
That's the linux tax again...w a free OS no less 🤦♂️
Well regardless, the world needs alternatives that are outside of restrictive US patent law and large monopolistic control. Thank god for pioneers:)
I saw this coming, with no easy way to cancel the monthly subscription and decided to pay with a prepaid credit card instead...glad I did, it saved me from getting robbed.
Well that's cool:). Remove the profit motive/surplus goes a long way to slow down evil.
Because Americans are obsessed with iphones, as a status symbol and "American" product and it's a default...no effort required.
Bucky was right once again with his theory of "Ephemeralization" https://dbpedia.org/page/Ephemeralization ... The only reason we're concerned with these companies employing Devs and spending Billions to do what small teams of FOSS are able to achieve is simply a bad economic system that requires "make work" or Bullshit jobs for wages to feed the parasite class, instead of us living like the Jetson's. Time to move one!
Light rail is infinitely more expensive to construct and it only takes one delay/accident and all subsequent trains after cause a log jam...vs a bus which can route around it.
A better solution uses corridors dedicated to buses that are electric powered.
Something like this was done in Colombia with these routes being connected by ground hubs, similar to subway stations.
Time for #abode , I want to believe ;)
So great that you're doing this!

Subsidies are another way to say State planning, which is how you direct the "free market". No capitalist, which includes China, will "innovate" without being baited with money.
There are massive subsidies in the US as well, but these go into the pockets of the CEOs and political/financial class. If this were to happen in China they'd go missing like Jack Ma of Alibaba until he got his head right.
