"....throughout the history of #OpenSource we have a pattern of putting all of our eggs in one or two baskets. But eventually a company needs to make money - so they start boiling the eggs in the basket ... If open source is a garden then we keep planting ourselves in sand and hoping the tide never comes in.

@downey this analysis is flawed. A valid point on not putting all eggs in one basket, but there is a great difference between convenient service and monopoly.
I do tend to avoid sites that look like they could be heading towards a greed based ending (GitLab and NextCloud make me wary.), but not going to call them monocultures until they enforce a monoculture.
