I saw this coming, with no easy way to cancel the monthly subscription and decided to pay with a prepaid credit card instead...glad I did, it saved me from getting robbed.
Well that's cool:). Remove the profit motive/surplus goes a long way to slow down evil.
Because Americans are obsessed with iphones, as a status symbol and "American" product and it's a default...no effort required.
+1 for yunohost, the best hands down!
Fluffy chat is by far the easiest as it behaves more like an Instant Messenger with less focus on groups which is what makes element confusing. There's also much easier key handling and verification across devices. For anyone using a mainstream app like WhatsApp, element is a mess...confusing as hell.
Subsidies are another way to say State planning, which is how you direct the "free market". No capitalist, which includes China, will "innovate" without being baited with money.
There are massive subsidies in the US as well, but these go into the pockets of the CEOs and political/financial class. If this were to happen in China they'd go missing like Jack Ma of Alibaba until he got his head right.
