That's an incredibly ridiculous sentiment; you're only allowed to express an opinion once? I absolutely fail to see the value in such a norm; sometimes good ideas need repetition.
Free speech, et al, means I'm absolutely allowed to be annoying if I think it's worth it.
- arp242 3y agoI did not say "you're only allowed to express an opinion once". But please, show me a project you worked on, and I will show up to forcibly demand a change you don't want every single time the project comes up. And I will guarantee you that very quickly you will find it exceedingly tiring.
- jrm4 3y agoIt might be tiring, but I can live with that. I think my problem with your analysis here is that it's like "a personal project." It's not. It's GNU software. And to me -- choosing to use a license like that is something like taking up a mantle of freedom. You're part of something bigger, and I can't imagine that wouldn't include discussing out loud what direction the software should take.
