@HumanPenguin Well obviously we can't apply definitions of the likes of Meta or Google, who are trying to bend it towards their business goals, and also of some random internet bloggers. So apart from those, can you link to any applicable definition of open source which doesn't grant the freedom of use?
@foremanguy92@AnyOldName3 yes, unfortunately, you are wrong. The term "open source" also contains a clause about not restricting the use. Think "open cage", not just "open book".
@dogs0n Yeah the license is not open source. It restricts use, modifications and distributions. I thought people in this community would know what the name of the community means.
@pastermil@nicgentilecal.com - supposedly AGPL core with proprietary "enterprise" code in specific directories, but the open source doesn't even build without the enterprise code.
@kami@suboczsubocz matrix is a decentralized chat network so a matrix bridge is basically a WhatsApp bot forwarding all messages to a matrix bot so then you can use any of the matrix client apps. It's open source, self-hostable, but sure, you can pay your maintainer.
Really? Let's talk about Tiananmen Square. Or how about Uyghurs. Let's use a picture of Winnie the Pooh. Is it really "just like" every other state? I'd say it's a little bit above the average. People's democracy my ass. Just because trump turned USA authoritarian didn't make China less authoritarian.
@fubbernuckin Because you did spend that time to learn cooking somewhere in the past. Look, I teach IT students, and there is a very clear difference between those who use ChatGPT for everything, and those who try to figure things out. Even asking the right questions from people on IRC is a skill that needs to be learned and practiced. You don't see it, because you haven't grown up in a world with ChatGPT since the start, so you did already learn that. But can you ever stop learning?
@HumanPenguin Whatever man, are you even reading yourself?
I’m assuming ... assuming is only making you the arse.
If you have no source, then please stop bothering.
