I don't trust an open source solution by a major player unless it's published with other major players. Otherwise, the perverse incentives are too great.

- stanleydrew 2y agoWhat risk do you foresee arising out of perverse incentives in this case?
- jvalencia 2y agoChanging license terms, aggressive changes to the API to disallow competition, horrendous user experience that requires a support contract. I really don't think there's a limit to what I've seen other companies do. I generally trust libraries that competitors are maintaining jointly since there is an incentive toward not undercutting anyone.
