The other side of the fence is just as bad. Look at what Redhat and Freedesktop did to Linux.
While you might have the illusion of control, the exit plan to take control is to take on tens of millions of lines of source code and manage it yourself. That is not control.
Your data is the important bit. If you keep that portable and/or recreatable then it doesn't matter what tools you use.
- kelnos 2y ago> Look at what Redhat and Freedesktop did to Linux. Well now you're just contradicting yourself. I'm not going to say RedHat and fd.o have been perfect all the time or have always made the best decisions or haven't pursued agendas that may have been at odds with others. But c'mon. On one side you're saying that open source can never be good because no one maintains the cohesiveness and attention span to do "the last 20%", but then you rail on organizations that have tried to set and maintain standards, and reduce fragmentation on the desktop? You can't have it both ways.
