A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I just hope this is the start of an internet renaissance with less corporate control.
I doubt it, things cost money, that's how we got in the corporate trap originally. If you invest a ton of time and money into something sooner or later you need to get something back.
I'm not convinced you need corporate money though. I think grants/user contributions (add the awards concept like Reddit has?) can get you pretty far a la Wikipedia.
You are right, it could work but it is in no way certain.
