“open source” doesn't only mean what the “open source community” has memed it to mean
personally, I think the term should be avoided if its not what the open source community has made a culture around
but I cant say its weasely corporate “open washing”, either. because its the open source community that appropriated the term to mean a subset of free, open, commercial use licenses and everything digital thats necessary to replicate the product, not the other way around where corporations are suddenly using some legalese to turn it into a marketing term thats technically okay
