Beyond the license issue, the promised features vs. difficulty of implementing them is a knife in the 'if you don't like it, it's open source -- you can do anything you want'.
It's a technically correct statement. But that is all it is.

- apitman 3y agoTo get the full benefit of OSS, it's not enough to make open source software. You have to make forkable software. Sure, projects such as Chromium and Keycloak are technically OSS, but they're so massive and complicated that very few have the resources to fork them. It's not as bad as proprietary software, but it has some of the same drawbacks.
