Would be nice if you could edit your OP to reflect that.

"goes full MAGA" -> "suggest"

You do not suggest you outright shout. He compliments the apointment from what I have understood. Edit: removed stupid question.

It was taken.

Elon you found the Virus in your brain. Now do "rm -rf /"!!!

Why are they allowed to play the stock market? Is it not a conflict of interests? Edit: Typo

You fell for a sensationalising post.

You read one title and one tweet and assume a guys whole identity. WTF. Also Proton is owned by it's employees and a non-profit. https://proton.me/about/team There are many other people there. Also the tweet was a picture. Also if it is real it's not that bad to compliment a president on choosing a guy that actually is listening about what you have to say against big tech.

Bullshit. Title. Goodbye.

If you are on TikTok then both can spy on you. Before your traffic can go to china it has to go through the US.

Here, take a downvote. Who want to see this sh*t?

It's ridiculous how many people just go "oh well time to dump Proton" because of a picture (not even a link) of a tweet without context. Also the title is misleading. Andy Yen in this picture is complementing Trump, and also apperently posting facts about who started the antitrust actions. "Embracing" is, really, as I have written, misleading.

Nobody had to go kiss the ring they payed for his campaign because THEY WANTED to please him. Edit: Typo

This is what I have found about the governmance structure of OpenAI. It's complicated but basically the working company is a for-profit controlled by a non-profit, controlled by employees and other investors, the non-profit is also controlled by a board of driectors. Also it's all based in the US.

The Mastodon model is probably going to be a lot simpler and will probably not allow big investors to take ownership of the company. Also they are looking for a suitable country in the EU that will enforce the non-profit's obligations to the people. Being based in the EU is in itself a huge difference, and by choice. They have not set anything in stone yet so it's all specualtion essentialy.

Also there is the trust thing: OpenAI does not need trust from people, other AI companies are for profit too and work just fine. Mastodon is build around the fact that it is different from things like twitter. If they start doing maliciuos stuff, they will loose trust and in turn their main selling point. Also openness.

Also it is open source is it not? So any progress they have made can be used to create a competitor. Basically the whole business model is different.

You do not have to be friends with anyone! :D
