Thanks. What aspect is it of GPL'd code you like? Is it the freedom to use/modify it, the fact the source is available, ideological reasons (and if so what?), or something else?
- OkayPhysicist 5y agoThe GPL is just formalizes good-faith engagement. As I mentioned before, the default state of software should be that people have the right to modify any software they interact with. The GPL (and moreso, the AGPL) makes this a formal requirement of using my source code.
