I get where you’re coming from, but rainwater doesn’t hold a trove of personal information and/or influence daily decision making.
To reduce compute down to simply a resource supply issue is ignoring the primary reasons people care about digital sovereignty: privacy, transparency, freedom (i.e. free speech), etc.

This is kind of an odd take imo. FOSS is important because it doesn’t matter who the creators or maintainers are. Even if all of the people OP listed were in that room and agreed to write backdoors into their software for the government, others could just fork those projects and the community could move on without the bad actors. (I know that’s easier said than done, but it is feasible.)
I’m not about to start cheering for Richard Stallman just because he’s not MAGA. He had some pretty bad takes about the Epstein scandal.
This is great! Love all the hard work and transparency. Been on Lemmy for a while now and absolutely love it. :)
