I wouldn't care
I'm one person
Not a development team with all the tribal knowledge of a given tool, and the millions of developer-hours that have already gone into building it
OSS is already "right to repair" ... yet how many people actually contribute something when they find an issue?
Expand that to "how many people even submit a bug when they find a problem?"
I'd wager the answer to the broader question is a lot less than 0.1%
And of those, the ones who actually make a fix is probably also a lot less than 0.1%
Out of a million users, maybe 1,000 would submit a bug (if they found it)
Out of 1,000 bug submitters, maybe 1 would post a fix (if they could)
- rlpb 4y ago> OSS is already "right to repair" ... yet how many people actually contribute something when they find an issue? It doesn't matter. It just takes one, and then it's fixed for everyone. I generally do contribute. Now I'm employed to do so, but I still do the same when working on some hobby thing.
- warrenm 4y ago>I generally do contribute Congratulations! You're in the 0.1% of the 0.1%! For the remaining population ... it doesn't matter whether they "could" 'fix it' - they won't (or can't)
