@nyx @sun @Ree i’ve been saying this too

many foss people are highly intelligent but they have zero street smarts and will give their free labor to corporations that will use it against them

just look at the AGPLv3 open core playbook that works literally every time: promise “free software forever”, wait for fossbros to build your entire product, wait until you have enough captive users, then gradually move features to paid SaaS until the “free” part is nothing but a useless skeleton. exact same thing also worked for android

what matters isn’t the license, what matters is whether it is free software by and for the community, or a commercial product in disguise.

never ever contribute to the latter. do not even report bugs.
