I don't see this as asshole behavior. They're giving away an overwhelming amount for free, which the community or a competitor can build upon at any time. This project being an example.
For those who find the closed capabilities and extensions distasteful there is opportunity to make their own.
- stonogo 3y agoI've got several decades of experience with the things Microsoft has given away for free. I consider this to be an (entirely on-brand and consistent) asshole move, part of the same EEE cycle we've been through a dozen times with a dozen product lines. It's enough to keep me off even the open-source rebuild of the product.
