Recently this post by DHH has been making the rounds about the use of the term community around open source and the fact that these projects are not democrac...
Are you referring the title here on Lemmy (ported from YouTube), or are you referring to any video, in general, that uses this practice? If it’s the latter, why punish the creator? The need for clickbait is more of an environmental requirement for success created by YouTube. I can’t fault a creator for trying to succeed.

Hm. Democracy, by definition, is rule by the majority. A smaller fork gradually becoming larger and more successful than the prior, thereby eating up a larger chunk of the market, is really more of an example of competition.

I don’t click on clickbait i’m absolutely sure it’s misleading or wrong.
If someone has a valid point, tone it way down, i don’t expect anything serious out of it.
“Why blue isn’t a color” isn’t something i’m interested in.
Well, if you didn’t click on it, then you can’t be sure — it’s just a presumption.
How do you mean?
Sounds more like anarchism than democracy.
