How do you even manage to break LGPL lmao all it asks for is attribution, which is like a few line changes on your LICENSE file.
They’re Chinese, they ain’t bothering to read and change the License (especially if they don’t have many english-speaking devs)
Most people are unaware that even open source projects have licenses: Permissive license, Strong Copyleft, Weak Copyleft etc.
Some resources:
And all those licenses rely on copyright and IP law.
And all those global faceless multicorps requiring you to agree to their 200 page eula rely on that foss licensed goodness, without ever contributing an iota back to the source.
I just wish each video decoder manufacturer didn’t feel the need to create their own API that isn’t supported by anything.
It feels counter productive when everyone relies on ffmpeg and there are no proprietary secrets left to protect. Just agree on an open standard that saves time and effort for all companies using it while getting tons of goodwill and positive cosmic vibes and maybe even revenue.
Does this accomplish anything? Was anyone actually relying on this? I’d say the company was just doing it just to publish it, but I’ve known developers who would certainly use the public repo as the primary copy.
