Then it's not FOSS and you fork from before that point
Bigots fork your project and get hit with a lawsuit.
EZ
>ingsoc v4.1
>shitposters fork 4.0
Wow
Such a loss
its crazy to think that microsoft could become the closest thing to an open platform
Wot
if linux gets closed off and changed
is all i meant
It literally cant
ya i know
but for the bulk of people they will stick to the main builds
All the corporate support then goes to the ingsoc fork and shitposters are back to a dozen nerds doing shit in their free time. Sure it might still exist but progress grinds to a halt and you lose most of your software library because it's not being updated anymore.
so for those people it will be closed off
>a dozen nerds doing shit in their free time
You mean the basis for all of this
^^
Look, back before linux took off it was virtually unusable. The difference in usability between Red Hat 5.2 and Windows 2000 was like night and day.
Also Linux is not a normie kernel. People have fights over systemd and vim/emacs
If the license stopped being FOSS on later releases you'd lose a ton of support
Who are the corporations going to back? The SJWs or the shitlords?
Neither
bullshit
Neither of them are a substantial audience lol
the sjws already have pretty much everyone convinced they are some huge group
>Microsoft is going to back a group that wants to fuck over Microsoft
Ok
or at the very least
that they speak for a very large group
microsoft has mostly stayed away from all of this
But they dont want to "fuck over microsoft" they want to "help microsoft stop being racist"
which they will
So help them isolate themselves
they will stay totally out of it all
so they can just be the arms dealer selling to everyone
they are the nic cage lol
MS didn't have to do shit because the community fixed it
The system self corrected
huh?
you lost me there
The specific instance being referenced
The anti ICE non FOSS license
