   Sounds like the right stance to me for anyone who cares about the human beings out there and about free-software-for-freedom:

     @civodul Legit grievances and well written. It seems everyone thinks FOSSDEM should've held out for a higher (perhaps much higher) price. I think there needs to be a conversation before the protest though. Better times seldom result from the spoiling of your neighbor's yard. Mr. Dorsey and other billionaires value FOSS. Let's be as kind as we purport ourselves to be. With luck he may freely agree to address some of the needs of the FOSS communities from which he greatly benefits.
