if the goal of "free software" is to give the user control over how the software behaves then is minecraft[1] more free than, say, gcc[2]? thread locked by moderators after reaching 100 pages of intense debate

[1]: where an end-user can usually install >100 mods with a lot changing the game in nontrivial ways reasonably trivially without major conflicts
[2]: where combining multiple features from different forks requires lengthy conflict resolution usually dependent on deep knowledge of the systems being modified

@kopper GCC is not a videogame.

@Luanti is much freer than Minecraft.

@tusharhero look into reading comprehension someday

@kopper writing a compiler is a different task when compared to writing mods for game.

I am sure you are aware GCC has support for many languages as well.

@tusharhero please look into the meaning of words in context instead of simply pattern matching on the words you recognize

@kopper You don't have to be so rude. If you don't like my replies block me.
