  • I am I’m favor of an “open” source license minus profiting off of your forks, which I understand makes the resulting license not open source. In a capitalist system, the capitalist class will take every opportunity to parasitically take where ever possible. Nothing free in a capitalist system, including living. Free development comes at a cost, even iif made purely out of passion.

    I don’t get why people still believe they have to gatekeep the open source definition or how to prevent capitalists from exploiting free labour.

    Life and circumstances aren’t static. They are constantly evolving. Just because capitalists treated open source as a threat, back when it was created, doesn’t mean they didn’t learn how to exploit it and those who work on it. They do now and it’s only natural to evolve and try to find a way to protect from such exploitation.

    To stand still and point fingers at others trying to move forward is conservative, the exact opposite of progress.
