- sofixa 3y agoExactly! But it's objectively a shit way of sharing code, there is no contributions possible, etc.
- orthoxerox 3y agoGPL or any OSS license doesn't require you to accept contributions. Your users are free to do anything with it except distribute derviative software under a different license, but you, the author, don't owe them anything except buildable and runnable (since v3) source code.
