What?
FOSS is great, I like the idea of people from all over the world contributing towards software that benefits the user rather than the creator.
I fail to see how that equates to "communism good" though. That's a huge leap in thinking. Really weird when surely most people on here live and benefit from capitalist societies.
Sounds like you're getting too much of your info from here or reddit because the US is not anything like what's portrayed on television overall. You've got your small pockets of crazies that are unfortunately very loud, hence the reason we look nuts. Yes, every 4 years we get to vote, and that could have some drastic changes on policies. But that's America for you. Don't bash us just because our current leadership is ass.
tldr
China wants to buy ownership in VPN services so they can get access to data of unsuspecting users.
Admittedly I really like Discord's user interface. Love the servers that can be organized by channel and channel type, have permissions sets for different roles, etc. All that good shit. What I don't like is the total control of one entity and lack of privacy. I've been looking at Matrix but it still has a ways to go before I could ever think of completely dropping Discord.
I'd be worried with that many hits.
What's that? Are those sea shanties I hear being sung over the horizon?

Im new, but Id guess thats the reason. New people like me catching on to the fediverse stuff migrating from “mainstream” social like reddit.
I meant that light heatedly but I see how that could come across as an immature comment. I guess where I'm coming from and failed to articulate in a constructive way is that I'm surprised there's so much support for communism when likely most of the people on here live in capitalist societies that though have issues still allow them enough freedom to make those statements without fear of punishment.
