Years ago I had Stallman personally demand that I quit Apple in protest of something that he felt strongly about. He was obnoxious to the point that I lost all respect for him.
The OSS community would do better without Stallman.
- iradik 15y agoWow very interesting. Well you were making closed software :) Did he offer you suggestions on what to do instead? I recall stallman saying if he couldn't develop free software he'd work at a diner. Will never starve.
- flomo 15y agoWas this back when Apple was suing everyone over "look and feel"? The FSF was "boycotting" Apple, which as a pragmatic matter, only made it difficult to find tools for A/UX.
- spodek 15y agorms is not a member of the OSS community. He is a (founding) member of the Free Software community. At least that's my understanding.
