  • Proton would be absolutely awesome if it stuck to it's "We're better than GMail" plan and provided stellar email and calendar.

    You're saying that like those have now gotten worse than they were before.

  • There are separate mail and VPN plans. What are you upset about?

  • Welcome to Lemmy!

  • You might be surprised to find out that, just like everywhere else, Linux users are a minority among the Proton userbase.

  • Some instances choose to disable downvotes. If you downvote a comment that originates from one of those instances, it will have no effect outside of your home instance.

  • Because otherwise you'd be supporting the Chromium monopoly, and that's the biggest sin imaginable in the Fediverse.

  • There will never be enough donations to cover the cost of hosting videos.

  • The simple reason is that most people here already use Firefox, but not most people here are already vegan.

  • That's not what "federated" means. Please do not spread misinformation.

  • Everyone in this thread is already using Linux and just using this thread to circlejerk about issues the average Windows user won't care about.

  • No, this is not correct at all! You keep limiting yourself to the terms "open source" and "closed source".

    Any code you create, you own by copyright. Even if it is public on GitHub, you're still the lone copyright owner and no one is legally allowed to do with it what isn't allowed by a license.

    Projects on GitHub without an open source license are only "functionally open source" to the same extent that pirated games are "functionally free".

  • Correct, you are allowed to click the "fork" button and nothing else. You're still not allowed to download, use, modify, compile or redistribute the code in any way that doesn't involve the "fork" button.

  • The industry takes advantage of open source projects that have permissive licenses. This is an important distinction.

    If you didn't release your code with a permissive license (or even with a license at all), you have rights that protect you and your code. The only issue is that copyright infringement can often be hard to prove if you didn't plan ahead for it.

  • I’m seeing this misconception in a lot of places.

    Just because something is on GitHub, doesn’t mean it’s open source. It doesn't automatically grant permission to share either.
