There is no “my” in open source
- Ezhik 11y agoOpen source code is a bit like having a child. It will not always go in the direction you expect, it may even run away from you to live with somebody else, but it is still your child.
- MrTonyD 11y agoThis aligns with a concept I read recently -- real freedom means that you will often be restricted in your actions. When you think about it, that makes sense. Since other people are also free, it is just reasonable that a community would construct shared values which would probably imply some restrictions on everyone's actions. So people trying to justify policy based on their "freedoms" are often being unreasonable.
