There's doing each other (& ourselves) credit, and then there's taking the score.

Sometimes it's good to be strategic, but sometimes we also need real accounts of things.

Personally an overboiling sadness & frustration that the world is captured inside closed priorietary & ultimately horrendously compromising mediocre application-centric versions of computing is a lamentation I am deeply familiar with.

The message isn't happy or here to win popularity contests. It's earnest & frank & hard, reflects on the feeling that the world is trapped & kept away from understanding.

This is one manifestion of a long running gnostic battle, one humanity has been losing for a while now, and I see no obligation or cause to pretend like earning popularity-credits helps anyone. Earnesty & catharsis on the other hand reflect the real. They portray the struggle as it is.
