- travisgriggs 2y agoThis the crux of the issue. And it’s why you can basically ask “Can we trust <insert profit motive> with open source?” and always answer definitively No. one is collaborative “commons” economy, the other is an attempt to make a deal between a baron and their serfs. Ultimately, each is striving against each other.
