This is really the death of open source software as a mainstream thing. Here it is, the golden opportunity for decentralization and open source to solve a large societal problem. And it fails miserably. Open source can’t survive in a world where computers and software aren’t esoteric, mysterious, status-signaling to be a part of like they were in the late 90s onward. Computers are just mundane. There’s no more reason for greyhound to go open source and be powered by volunteer labor than social media companies.
