- Ferret7446 11mo agoSo would you rather Google have a secure ffmpeg while us plebian individual users continue to have an insecure ffmpeg?
- GaryBluto 11mo agoIt's frustrating to me how many people are siding with FFmpeg here considering how unprofessional and generally asshole-ish they are being. I feel that this is mostly a kneejerk reaction to AI and Google in general, with people coming up with arguments to support their reaction after already forming an opinion.
- NoGravitas 11mo agoIt's a volunteer project, they have no requirement to be 'professional'. That's basically the root of the whole issue. A hobby project is not a product, and its developers are not vendors. Free software is not a supply chain.
- Dylan16807 11mo agoThe word "unprofessional" here is muddying the comment more than it helps. Let's just saying they're being asshole-ish, which is a problem for volunteer projects just as much as non-volunteer ones. The ffmpeg twitter sucks.
- joshuamorton 11mo ago> A hobby project is not a product, and its developers are not vendors But it's developers do offer paid consulting as ffmpeg maintainers, which Google does pay for.
- adastra22 11mo agoBecause we've worked as open-source maintainers and experienced the same frustrating asshole-ish behavior from companies before.
- warkdarrior 11mo agoThey probably fixed in the internal version.
