Every other day there's an article about FOSS crisis, bubbles and unsustainability.
Meanwhile there's rock solid free software, just chugging along for longer than the people writing those articles have been alive.
I first started using Screen around '95, it was the nicest way to stay logged in to my ircII session while yielding the vt220 terminal to someone else for a while and going for a drink/smoke/walk.
Used it ever since, from terminal multiplexing to daemonizing services at a shoestring startup. I've used just a tiny subset the features I know it has, and probably don't know of many more, but it has served me well over the years.
Congrats on the release!
