duplexsystemAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike is not really open source. It’s more like source available
Yep…when software advertised as “Open” uses that type licence, it goes straight to the trash.
I’m curious to hear the philosophical reasons that lead you to feel so strongly about this.
I don’t trust people who use misleading language. I’m fine with buying or using closed source or source available software, but don’t call it open source and don’t say your ‘F’ is for Freedom.
Personally, when I’ve read their blog post, I didn’t feel like I was being lied to. I felt like I was reading the words of a person who has not spent very much time speaking English.
Yeah, I wasn’t talking about Floorp in particular. In fact, I read ‘Open Source’ from the Lemmy post title and attributed that language to Floorp itself.
After checking the project, I agree with what you’ve said here. Thanks for your thoughts
