Please please please don't make the mistake of assuming that the current government of Israel is the same as the people living in Israel or are running companies there.
It's like accusing everybody that speaks Russian of genocide or thinking that all us Americans endorse ICE. All Asians started COVID and so in.
I still accept the idea behind it as an open source idea. Use it, change it, own it. That might not fit into a more strict definition of opensource but I am okay with that while still calling it opensource. That's what I meant by idealistic approach and realistic. Needed to change some aspects because they got taken advantage of, still kept the (to me) relevant parts to count as open source.
And believe me when I say that I am very passionate about opensource. Only run OSS and even bought a core one (which not as polished as myx1c that I am selling) to go back to my ideals.
Like Open source software licenses changed over time to include some mechanisms to protect the software against exploitation. E.g. large scale use and no kickback in support for paying additional developers. I feel that this is happening here and the no compromise idealistic manifest from the beginning needs amending.
I completely get the paranoia component of needing to control all factors involved. I have that too regarding my data. But at some point trust is needed.
PO boxes can burn down. The power grid can fry everything. Even the backup as soon as you plug it in. The government can create a kind of gestapo and let them loose and you won't have the right to run a server anyways (uh?). Etc..
I always see the pattern :) I have a workshop to make tools to make tools to eventually make something else. Also a 3d printer ... And the cycle continues.
