    There’s a clear difference between open source and free open source software. It is open source but the licence is not “free”. Not entirely at least

      @isthereanydeal Nope. That distinction only appeared when big companies kinda became afraid of open source software, so they wanted to redefine the term, create some confusion, corrupt it…
