@elkcityhazard React has grown far beyond FB, so I see no problem here. Moreover, if that were a problem, then by extension we probably shouldn't be using computers at all because all the tech was created by unethical companies (IBM, Bell, the US DoD...).
@sennomo @elkcityhazard hm, maybe you're right. We've gone too far - let's abandon everything.
@pseudoramble @sennomo well I guess I can become a gemini protocol dev. Thanks for the great responses guys 👍
@elkcityhazard I too code in react and I do not use Facebook for the exact same reasons. They may use their tools unethically, that doesn't make the tool evil. It can be used to create amazing things. That's my 2 cents 😀
@elkcityhazard very much imo; choosing to use react doesn't mean you align with facebooks principles. If you can stick to your own ideals while still using their tools then why the heck not. Use it for your own benefit ^^
