TechChristophhas ubuntu still amazon on it12:35
TechChristophbecause richard stallman sayd pieces of ubuntu ist spyware12:35
TechChristophi don't know if is true or not12:36
alkisgAmazon is a shop. Ads are not spyware.12:36
alkisgAnd no, mate doesn't have it12:36
alkisgIf you want to ask about ubuntu instead of ubuntu-mate, go to #ubuntu12:37
TechChristophthats good12:37
TechChristophif have ubuntu-mate :)12:37
alkisgAds are good, they pay developers12:37
alkisgIf developers don't get paid, we have bad software12:37
TechChristophi love free software12:37
alkisgFree doesn't mean unpaid12:37
alkisgDevs do have to eat12:37
TechChristophi know12:37
alkisgThey can't eat air12:38
TechChristophbut i as a user should have to install wat i want12:38
TechChristophnot what the developer want me to install12:38
alkisgGo to google play store; there are a million ad-supported aplications there12:40
alkisgThere, you have to see the ads to use the software12:40
alkisgIt's not a bad model12:40
TechChristophyes thats a better model12:40
alkisgYeah amazon in ubuntu is the same12:41
TechChristophok12:41
alkisgA bit better, because it allows you to remove the ads12:41
TechChristophbut if i search in ubuntu, the search term will be sent so amazon12:41
TechChristophi that's what i don't want12:42
alkisgAnd if you search in firefox, it goes to google12:42
TechChristophi add noscript12:42
alkisgAnd?12:42
alkisgYou're not using google?12:42
TechChristophno12:42
alkisgWhat are you using?12:42
TechChristophduckduckgo12:42
alkisgEh, whatever12:43
alkisgSending searches and statistics is more important than being anonymous12:43
alkisgOtherwise search engines wouldn't work12:43
TechChristophhttps://duckduckgo.com/12:43
alkisgYeah I know it12:43
alkisgThey are not a search engine12:44
alkisgThey use other people's work12:44
alkisgIt's like me doing charity using your money12:44
TechChristophbut i as a user should have the freedom to install things or not12:44
alkisgOnly if you pay for them12:44
alkisgIf not, you do whatever the developer wants, because he did the work12:44
alkisgAs a user, you only have power if you pay12:44
alkisgOr if you develop12:44
TechChristophwell if i have to pay i programm it on my own12:45
TechChristophand make it free to others12:45
TechChristophso others don't have to pay too12:45
alkisgCool, although it's bilions of hours of work12:57
alkisgIt would take you a million lifes to do all of it12:57
alkisgAnd I don't know what you would be eating while giving away your software for free :)12:58
TechChristophi have a job13:06
TechChristophso developing is my hobby13:06
alkisgRight, if you want low-quality software, you can take software from hobbyists13:21
alkisgBut if you want high quality software from professionals, they need to get paid13:22
alkisgEven just maintaining (not developing) a software may take 8 hours of work per day; you can't do that as a hobbyist13:24
