Thats cool that you feel that way, but I absolutely do not. I dont like the idea of huge companies making millions, while the authors of the software "powering" their business get nothing.
- josephg 4y agoJust to be really clear, if you feel that way I'm glad you're opting out of using opensource licenses. Not everyone wants to be an opensource developer. Not all code needs to be open source to have value. There's nothing wrong with that and that makes complete sense to me. If you ever publish anything to npm / cargo / etc, I hope you make the fact your code isn't opensource very clear. I don't want to accidentally use your code in my projects, in violation of your license.
- 2h 4y agoyou are welcome to use my code, as long is its non-commercial use. If you wish to have commercial use, I offer license for that as well for a fee.
- josephg 4y agoI understand that; but libraries I publish have dependencies. If one of my dependencies (your library) isn't licensed for commercial use, then my library also can't be used in commercial projects. Thats a decision I want to make intentionally, if at all.
