- lifthrasiir 4y agoYou may want to check out the official statement [1] from the Zig foundation as well. Even though forking is not necessarily stealing, what they have done seems more accurately described as stealing.

- quelltext 4y agoNot really. Like, I would't use Zen personally and it's fair for Zig to highlight their concerns, but still none of this is stealing, and seems more like a petty disagreement, the cause of many forks on other projects in history.
- t-3 4y ago> forking /= stealing I think many people just fundamentally don't understand sharing or friendly coexistence. The drive to dominate and control is sooo maladaptive for society but very widespread.
