   Something that would really change my life as a FOSS dev is that people stop seeing FOSS as a finished product but instead as a best effort collective work by people that are [in position off] contributing for free on their free personal time on it and gave it to you for free [when this situation apply].

   Like stop saying that "this is total shit" because you had bugs or because it wasn't top 100% perfect like you want for your super edge case that it wasn't designed for -_-

     @mike @bram Yes, the question of being able to build commons in a capitalist economy is crucial.

     To me the battle of free software became irrelevant considered that nowadays:
     - capitalism ate free software and rebranded it as opensource, which really is just "free software with free as in free market"
     - there's free software everywhere, used to build centralized proprietary services
     - everything happens in the cloud, so there are many questions like "how do you effectively trust sysadmins with your data"
