@coachtony Direct payment or speculative investment… Money is and will continue to be king.
Which is too bad. Because it can also be blinding and disconnecting from the reality of the impact of the product. But it is so obvious to me too how overwhelmingly influential money is. Slowly and over long periods of time free and open methods can win but in our current global capitalist society money will make software faster and that is what makes one software better than another. Speed of development.
