  • I think one has to cope with it the same way the inventor of the ice pick had to cope with Walter Jackson Freeman II. You can’t really control what people do with your tools. If you think someone actively destroying lives will bend to the whims of a license, that’s cool. I wish I had that level of optimism. Right now it’s still pulling teeth to get companies to respect GPLv3.


  • Pinchflat is one of the good containers that doesn’t try to play with ID remapping or anything. You just need a container quadlet like the following:

    [Install]
    WantedBy=default.target
    
    [Container]
    Image=ghcr.io/kieraneglin/pinchflat:latest
    
    Environment=TZ=CHANGEME
    
    Volume=CHANGEME/config:/config
    Volume=CHANGEME/downloads:/downloads
    
    PublishPort=127.0.0.1:8945:8945
    

    It’ll run as the quadlet user id by default.

















  • Different objectives from FSF. FSF wants everything to be free as in freedom. FUTO wants to show people that making money from software should not explicitly require anti-consumer practices.

    The two often clash because they both redefine generic terms to support their specific objectives.

    They both believe that open source software is inherently a requirement for consumers moving forward.

    I use standard FOSS where I can, but I hope FUTO concepts catch on in the spaces that are still vehemently opposed to the idea of FOSS. At the very least it helps boil the frog. I just don’t want to see the two fighting because that’s a waste of energy right now.
