Valentin Ignatev(@valigo):GNOME Foundation members are crashing out because Digital Ocean stopped sponsoring Flathub server for $50/month and instead gave 3 million dollars to DHH and Omarchy. Meanwhile, a year ago when GNOME foundation released a blog post thanking AWS for sponsoring them, they got a lot of criticism from the unemployed. It turns out it's very hard to make money in open source if you hate money, and you hate people who have money.
