Not only did LF pick Jack Dorsey's Goose to their umbrella but also its main discussion forums are Discord and X.

Everything wrong. Together.

Sometimes I get the feeling that the "institutions" of free software, which are even "foundations", have become a kind of political party or religion, that is, structures or organizations for doing business, or perhaps laundering money. Maybe I'm too distrustful, or maybe experience has taught me a lot.

@caesarcattus I otherwise agree but would exclude FSF despite they do a lot of that too but it is of transparent and aligned with what they say they do.

I've never really grabbed e.g., purpose of Open Source Initiative. It's basically a branding agency making anything that comes from SIlicon Valley appear to be aligned with open source.

I would have really hard time to find a person who would willingly try out Goose. I could almost bet my money that people who picked it have never tried it :-) Screenshot this time really speaks for itself.

@caesarcattus I don't like Rust style overdone cli TUIs but I'd still except basic some cli ergonomics, like auto-complete when you press '/'.

I don't really understand free software either, maybe because I'm autistic and not very sociable. But I can recognize the contradictions and my own human biases.
As for Goose, you've piqued my interest and maybe I'll give it a try.

@caesarcattus Yeah, try it :-) It does not do much harm being a single binary compiled from Rust but neither is it really usable for anything.
