The only positive thing is that they are SUCH GREEDY FUCKS that companies often patch out the protection after release to stop paying them.
Which is widely overused.
Welkom in Nederland, moederneuker!
That’s why I said “even if”.
“Even if” it’s not really a bug and they are backtracking, then [rest of comment here].
Is there anything going on right now that would warrant people being critical of the state of Israel and its leaders? Anything at all?
Even if they are backtracking with egg on their face, this is good. Maybe better. Now they know they can’t get away with this stuff.
It sounds to me you are making excuses instead of confronting the obvious problems of Mastodon. It’s user-hostile to anyone who is not already a fucking nerd.
Just like Lemmy.
What are you talking about man?
This is the Musk community. Haven’t you heard?
That’s substantially more restrictive than “Apache but you can’t sell it through this specific channel”, and it wouldn’t help this particular problem.
It’s not that the knock off extensions don’t want to share their code (they probably do).
“Such views” as the generally accepted definition of “open source” that’s been around since 1998?
Or the definition of “free software” that’s been around since 1990?
Or is it the fact that you are ignorant and arrogant, a potent combination, and resent being called out on your shit?
You sure run your mouth a lot for someone who “doesn’t care”.
TLDR: I’m too lazy or self absorbed to go look at the OSI website.
Because of the “no restrictions on use” thing.
I’m happy this arrangement works for you, but it’s clearly pushing beyond the boundaries of OSI-defined open source, let alone Free Software.
The linked post is damning as FUCK. It’s not about business. Someone’s review bruised his fragile little ego.
Get bent.
There is notably more Portuguese content since then. I’m guessing quite a bit stuck around.
Mastodon is still pretty rough around the edges. Especially for the regular Twitter Instagram crowd.
Windows is just the micro kernel running the actual operating system: Firefox.
