What does /g/ think about open source software?
For me, it's libre software.
I love Mio.

>>109355416All the threads on /g/ are time wasting questions, the ones with lust provoking images have the benefit of being pleasant to look at.
>>109355460you make, a fair pointI will make sure to /e/ post for all my threads next time
>>109355170often ruined by open source developers.
>>109355170Open source a shit, proper Free Software is where it's at. AGPL+Nigger or bust. There is nothing freer.
Open source is nice for the freedom it grants but closed source is sometimes superior or necessary.

>>109355170Open Source is an ideological cancer built on lies and assumptions.Open and reliable specifications leading to multiple independent implementations is what everyone should strive for. Free software should be about allowing for end user choice in what they do, how they do, and with which software they do it with.But as it stands right now, open source has become home to massive projects that aim to replace everything else while being too large, too incomprehensible and too heavily relied upon to ever be replaced themselves.

mio!
>>109355170The earthbound map editor consumes a lot of ram for a software that views snes data.
It's as if Santa Claus just visits me every day and gives me presents.
>>109355170If the open source program is really good? I’ll tap it.
>>109355170I don't mind them. Honestly, I'm more interested in programs that run locally as opposed to on the cloud like a lot of LLM software does. Hey, it's great that the software is open and people can audit it, but what's that, it doesn't allow me to connect to a local source?
>>109355170Open source is just free labor for trillion-dollar corporations.Now the free software had some good ideas but it has end up failing completely in its objectives at this point in my opinion, maybe it's because they hyper-focuses on loicenses and on other ideological bullshit instead of , or maybe it's because instead of offering something truly innovative they keep reproposing existing outdated bullshit but rewritten (kind of like rustards), it's like UNIX but it's free! it's like Office but it's free! it's like Windows/MacOS user interface but it's free! in the end a lot of foss stuff feels like low quality knock offs, but there's also a lot of people that do make innovative stuff that just prefer the open model (I am one of these), problem is that in the end the GNU/Linux world is this patchwork of very different stuff with no coherency or vision at all, and it's a huge problem and waste of effort.Of course the four fundamental freedoms as described by Stallman are something every user should have, but then as >>109355971 rightfully points out this is not enough at all, how is anyone supposed to modify and redistribute something like Mozilla Firefox when it's millions and millions of lines of code? that alone defeats the entire idea, and if the purpose of the system is undertanding and modifying the systems you use (these is simple the original hacker culture btw as foss came out of it) then why is most foss software hostile to dynamic reprogrammable systems? like most stuff is written in languages like C or C++ which don't even have a REPL, I could go on but yeah basically foss is a good idea that got badly implemented, you could say that these problems are to some degree a consequence of the bazaar model, a question: could foss be made with a different model than bazaar? like as a coherent project with a vision from the language to the os to the utilities, with stricter rules of collaboration, would it still be foss?>>109356627yui!

>>109355170Communism.
>>10935517099% of it is dogshit. The only good open source projects have paid developers / maintainers and are sponsored by big companies
>>109355170Open Source is a cancer.Free/Libre Software is where it's at because it respects the user.
>>109355170Dios Mío, mi amigo
>>109355170There is no replacement for the auditability and repairability of open source software. There will be no better solution than fixing your own computer yourself by literally fixing the code. And beyond that, being able to modify your computer in any way you want, unparalleled freedom. Everyone knows it to be true.
>>109365959You are confusing opensource software and free/libre software.Opensource does not respect user freedom.
>>109355170https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html
>>109365978I use a lot of open source and free software in my computer, and find what I said accurate to all of that software.I understand that, from several perspectives, open source software is very poor for user experience, and I will admit that I prefer the more restrictive free software licenses compared to the often too permissive bsd and MIT licenses.
>>109355170I love it. something bothers me? I just change the source code and recompile.
>>109355170Is Mio open source?
