    So, your argument is merely that the point he blogs about does not matter?

    No

    Or do you somehow not want people to discuss it?

    No

    I wrote that I don’t want to invalidate his points. I think they are valid.

    All that our efforts did

    That statement is just too strong.

    Not to invalidate his points but:

    We won the debate, and gained little for users or developers. All that our efforts did was to make it easier for big corporations build things more cheaply and for billionaires to become trillionaires.

    We have free software. We have Linux. We have Graphene OS.

    Everybody can build whatever they want. That’s a huge win.













  • In theory. I doubt that enough people are already here because only few really want the change.

    Now for the next step?

    Check what people want. If there are huge differences that prevent a common goal, split the group.

    Then have a debate on what to do next in each group, vote on it and start.

    I would start with some business to make money and to develop a common culture and ethics.

    Expand until there are enough people who can live in one place. Then create that place and move there.

    Expand further until the knowledge and the location for a city from the future is available.

    Then build the city.
