is now an American company because of reasons instead of a German GGmbH.

Even in open source and non-profit, it is all about money and nobody seems to care ...

@motzmichel it is still a gGmbH but added the US entity in parallel, right?

@motzmichel @maxbob no, in parallel, you're talking out of your ass. The only thing it handles is the non-profit status in the US.

@BeAware @maxbob When my ass is speaking, you may smell it ...

Don't like other people's opinions? Go offline, please.

I do not trust that company and where it is heading ...!

@motzmichel @maxbob it's not an opinion, you're literally spreading misinformation. Your opinion that you don't like it is fine, but when you start spreading lies, that's when I will step in.

@BeAware @maxbob Oh, a brave soldier you are!

What LIE are we talking about?

Is the company running away because of taxes? Yes, they are! And they are now a US company if I am not completely wrong. So they are under us jurisdiction.

Again: I may be wrong. But I am not a liar. So beware how you address me! ...

@motzmichel @maxbob "Beware how you address me, person I chose to follow twice on 2 seperate accounts! "🤣

Get over yourself. Speak facts or don't speak at all cause if you start spreading bullshit, then who cares about your opinion but bullshitters?

Companies need money to operate. If they don't operate a non-profit in US, then they can't take donations from US to keep funded.

Here's the deal, having done a fair bit of forensic accounting and nonprofit work:

The Masto leadership were well advised to form a US corporation. It makes the accounting a lot simpler.
