- cheschire 5y agoIf you want your software to be FOSS, then you must accept than people can and will fork your work and make more money than you while doing it. If you don't want your software to be FOSS anymore, then you have to accept that at some point previously the "meat" of your code was already FOSS and you will be effectively competing against yourself. I still don't understand the problem, it's inherent in the decision to become FOSS in the first place. Or do you mean these folks who are complaining just didn't understand what FOSS meant before they got into it?
