- chme 10y agoI think this kind of reply makes it to easy for open source software, because any criticism directed to it can be countered with "patches welcome".
- unimpressive 10y ago"Patches welcome" is a much better state of affairs than "your platform is obscure and not worth supporting."
- chme 10y ago"patches welcome" imply "implement it yourself" as does a simple "not supported" or "wont fix". Following the "patches welcome" logic to the extreme, you would never need anymore than a touring complete language, because you could implement everything yourself. Of course you don't need to implement as much with free software as with closed one and that is great, but you need to invest time before you can use it and it is valid to criticize that fact.
- Karunamon 10y agoThe substantial difference between those two things is often nil.
