@mattblaze Ah, the hippy neck beard types who reject any form of commercialism because it pollutes their FOSS vision are particularly tiresome.
They don’t see that the privilege that commercial society has given us is what allows them to live within their values. We ran the communism experiment in the 20th century and it failed.
@davidbcohen@twit.social @mattblaze@federate.social I mean the capitalism experiment seems to be failing spectacularly itself. I don't disagree with your general point though.

@BriBear @mattblaze Agree, I am not an apologist who worships the free market. The powerful collaborating to exploit the system is a huge issue.

For the record, I don't generally sell my photos, here or anywhere else. But even if I did, I fail to see why that would be a problem.
Preventing artists from making a living is a strange hill to want to die on.
@mattblaze Just ignore them. Silence or block.
Nice photos by the way. -

@mattblaze (dog with ball meme) no post, only boost!

@mattblaze I don't get these comments. Though my account is locked to filter in the cognoscenti, and I only post my 'snapshots' from the phone on here.
At some point I will restart my photographical Journey with my Camera and Lenses. It paused when the kids arrived in 1998.
There is a local club that I am being encouraged to join in the south of France.
One needs to bring images on a memory stick. Only Camera photos permitted. -
While true, people would be entirely justified to scold about posting GWAR fan fiction without some sort of hashtag.

@mattblaze I boost artists a lot. I follow some artists. I think to do otherwise is mean-spirited. Artists have enough trouble putting a roof over their heads.
I got mastoscolded for not using the word "Gaza" in a song about Gaza that literally had Gaza City in the video.

@mattblaze I think those people are in a tiny minority and should be ignored. I love seeing art on here. I've bought quite a bit of music on Bandcamp via posts on Mastodon, and even some actual art to put in a frame. It's a great place to discover new things without having corporate hype shoved down my throat by an "algorithm". I love it here!

@mattblaze I remember the mastoscold who hated black and white photos
