  • The first example I thought of was Bill Gates. He amassed his wealth from a corporation that employed anti-competitive and immoral business practices. That makes him “bad”.

    But what he has done with his fortune in the past few decades definitely doesn’t make him a bad person. Is his foundation and its goals the most efficient way to go from point A to point B? Probably not. Does that make him a bad person? Probably not, but it also doesn’t absolve him of sins he committed in the past.





  • I check in every once in a while, at least until Apollo stops working. I mostly just stick to giving people Reddit alternatives or explaining the federated internet so people aren’t scared of such a simple thing.

    Selfishly I just didn’t want to use the Official App with ads. But once there’s a viable alternative to Reddit, and it’s actually better than Reddit, why would I go back? “hurr durr cause I can get a thousand updoots on my post”. Who cares? It’s about the quality of engagement. I was surprised how many people unironically care about their internet points and tie their identity up with a website.
