It's incredible how Google can get so many people to work for them for no pay. Would you similarly contribute to closed-source proprietary software if given the opportunity?
- zaphoyd 12y agoI'd put that sort of contribution in the detailed bug report category, something I'd absolutely contribute to closed source proprietary software if I thought there was a good chance it would get fixed and that I wouldn't have to deal with it being broken anymore.
- magicalist 12y agoI've filed many bugs on IE, Safari, and Chrome (for the last two not just on the Webkit/Chromium side, but also on the proprietary Safari/Chrome side). I see your point, but the reality is that my users are there and these are also products I use every day. It's in my interest to have them work correctly.
