    It’s sad how quickly FOSS projects can degrade. For example, LBRY just 2.5x-ed their monthly users numbers, and they already have google-analytics and ads…

      First clue, working with Venture Capital, the same will be coming to BRAVE browser … they’ll get their pound of flesh…just lull the people into adopting a “safe” alternative first.

          I see a huge difference between a company sponsored project vs real VC who don’t develop anything. They’re simply speculators/financial extractors they don’t even care what the widget is, only the return.

        yeah, it’s obvious why that happens, but it doesn’t it make any less sad…
