So you are basically saying "don't use open source software". Great. "Pinning your version" forever isn't a viable strategy in lots of cases.

- ohgodplsno 4y agoNo, I'm saying to not be a leech.
- the_af 4y agoI apologize, my reply was uncharitable. You are right that private companies should stop being leeches and give back to the community. I just wish we all collectively made FOSS work, because to my mind it's the greatest development in computing history, instead of going the proprietary road once again. Which I think is bad for all of us, even if short term it might look like a solution. But yes, leeching is a problem.
