The image seems to be an allusion to the theme behind the Asterix comic strip, of a small and happily independent Gaul village surrounded by a giant Roman empire unable to conquer it.

It's _hard_ to capture a very abstract ideal like free-as-in-freedom web services in one image.

To me, a successful image should be about celebrating freedom and independence. The Asterix comic strip succeeds at that, this image not so much.

Just like the inhabitants of the mythical Gaul village, I'm ok interacting with the Romans and their empire as long as they don't keep me from doing my thing, in the way I want.

The framasoft offerings are really interesting by the way. Do check them out if you haven't yet!

Oh come on. Let us have some fun, here is one of my favourites, "bliss kaboom!" which shows tux with a rocket launcher: https://hdwallpapers.cat/bliss-kaboom-tux-rocket-launcher-an...

(although I admit I've changed my view of Microsoft (from lawful evil to somewhere close to lawful neutral) and Google (from chaotic good to somewhere between chaotic neutral and chaotic evil).

omg that's exactly the internet i want :)

Notably not seated at the table: users.

That graphic is unfortunate

At least Google and Apple are big contributors to open source software (e.g. Chromium, CUPS). Instead of roasting big companies (because... privacy?) we should work together. This picture does more harm, because it view companies purely as enemies.
