Then why are you here? The very platform your saying this on is FOSS, and itโ€™s filled with FOSS bros.

Unironically why are you here?

So to get it straightโ€ฆ You call people stating their preference on an open source project as being an entitled brat, while simultaneously saying youโ€™ll never make any open source contributions while using open source because you wouldnโ€™t like anyone disagreeing with you? That seems pretty entitledโ€ฆ

You can stay all you want, the best part of FOSS projects is that anyone can use and contribute. Even menial things such as messages on a FOSS social platform.

But you never answered my question. What compels you to use Lemmy, while being anti-FOSS yourself?

I donโ€™t want you to leave, stay by all means, I just want to know.

Where did I say that Iโ€™m anti-Foss? Please show me the exact location.

Please explain to me how Iโ€™m anti-Foss when Iโ€™m practically only using Foss projects and donating to them.

Talks about gatekeep while crying about all his projects he will keep all to himself. You are a special kind of insufferable, huh?

You are not entitled to my work. If you want access to them, stop being an insufferable entitled brat. Itโ€™s exactly this behavior why I wonโ€™t open-source them. Are you too dense to see how toxic parts of this community are?

At least I donate to Foss-projects.

Can you say that about yourself?

4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, canโ€™t quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
