fc00::/7 are ULA (basically what RFC1918 was for IPv4) not entirely true, fc00::/8 is part of ULA, but it is not yet defined. Use fd00::/8 instead.
2001:db8::/32 is for documentation purposes

i feel like it’s okay that they do this, but i don’t like the term “source available”. maybe something like “Free for Non-Commercial Use” or “FOSS-NC”?
the raw number of debt is nothing to build a conclusion on. you always have to see it relative to other values like the GDP of the US, which was 27.3 trillion in 2023 Statista. that’s an okay ratio.
if you’re not an idiot blowing it all on dumb shit
I’d argue that 100 Million, if invested with like 5% annual growth, would be enough even if you’re an idiot blowing it all on dumb shit
That list is either the undo-menu or the layers themselves, as everything you do in GIMP is somewhat destructive. This behavior will be changed in GIMP 3 tho.
is “step in and help review a few PRs” really that helpful? like… oh great, now this one person that i don’t trust is telling me that the other person that i don’t trust made some code that i should merge
Seems like you’re right: “In 2020 Pioneer DJ’s parent company’s name was changed to AlphaTheta Corporation. In March of that year KKR and Pioneer Corporation sold their respective stakes in AlphaTheta Corporation to Japanese holding company Noritsu” (Source)
I think it still belongs to them, but they rebranded to AlphaTheta
You can technically charge for FOSS, but that sort-of collides with the freedom to redistribute the software. You may have heard about that when the whole RHEL/Rocky Linux dispute happened.
Equal shares can also be kind-of unfair if your backend is using sqlx for the entire database communication and then you also use some small image-conversion library to convert the favicon from .png to .ico.
My last point may be a bit confusing, let’s try to make it a bit easier to understand: In this case, you are a company, that is directly using a piece of code that is licensed under the license you’ve been thinking about, and you’re also using a piece of proprietary software, e.g. some ERP-Software. The proprietary software is using a FOSS library that permits it to be used in a proprietary binary, let’s say because it’s BSD-Licensed. How do you know that the ERP-Software is using that library, and how would you determine how much you’d have to donate to them. You kind-of have to donate to them, because your ERP-Software wouldn’t run without that library
I know what FOSS means, but it seems like you think a license only needs to comply with one of the rules set up by OSI to be a FOSS license. If you charge your users (corps are also users) licensing fees, then you’re discriminating against specific fields of endeavor (users making money using your software). I’d argue you’re also interfering with other software projects, as some projects are strictly refusing donations (uBlock Origin as a popular example). As a last point: how would a business know which software it’s using and how do you define what project should get how much of their 1% of revenue? If a business is using proprietary ERP-Software, and that is using any random FOSS-Library, then how would that business know that the library is being used and, assuming they found out, how would they determine how much to donate?
Yeah, that’s cool and all, but your software isn’t FOSS if ppl have to pay to use it… Just license it under the AGPL and call it a day
…but it’s funny (although it would’ve been funnier if C was “Problem -> Buffer Overflow”)
You sure you don’t want to keep your comments GPLv2-only?
So what you’re saying is that the whole middle-east conflict is really just there to save the climate? /s
but then it’s up to the “best” product
that’s the part why it didn’t happen
That’s not the point. The biggest project that currently is on codeberg is forgejo with about 1000 stars. The biggest project that currently is on github is freeCodeCamp with 383000 stars.
You see the difference? If a dev only pushes to codeberg, they have basically no way of being discovered, because there is no one to discover them.
I think I should add that I am a supporting member of Codeberg e.V.
Didn’t know that, thanks. Luckily, I’ve only ever used fd00::/8
