I know there’s other plausible reasons, but thought I’d use this juicy title.

What does everyone think? As someone who works outside of tech I’m curious to hear the collective thoughts of the tech minds on Lemmy.

    FYI this was the board of the nonprofit, not the capped-profit subsidiary. One of the members is some sort of activist, even, so it wasn’t necessarily about money in any way.

      it could still be about money. Non-profits can still get sued to oblivion

        Not for failing to provide a profit, obviously. I guess if it’s embezzlement they would have a duty to act, but otherwise a nonprofit can shovel money into a literal furnace as long as it advances their mission (IANAL).
