Update: Bitwarden posted to X this evening to reaffirm that it's a "packaging bug" and that "Bitwarden remains committed to the open source licensing model."

    Man, I really hate seeing comments like this.

    That’s not a strong way to start a comment if you want to have a conversation.

    I feel like I need to reiterate that BitWarden is NOT an open-source company. They are committed to providing open-source compatible products with their products. Two very different things.

    I don’t particularly care about your feelings, but go right ahead.

    I’m curious though, did I say or imply they were AN OPEN SOURCE COMPANY (TM) (whatever the fuck that even means?)

    If they feel their product is somehow lacking or affected by whatever they are packaging right now, they are completely free to change it.

    Of course. And I’m free to post on this fucking website how I feel about it.

    Isn’t all this freedom to discuss our feelings just fucking great?

    It's really not a big deal

    Options about this obviously differ.

    It sounds to me you are making excuses instead of confronting the obvious problems of Mastodon. It’s user-hostile to anyone who is not already a fucking nerd.

    Just like Lemmy.

    That’s substantially more restrictive than “Apache but you can’t sell it through this specific channel”, and it wouldn’t help this particular problem.

    It’s not that the knock off extensions don’t want to share their code (they probably do).

    “Such views” as the generally accepted definition of “open source” that’s been around since 1998?

    Or the definition of “free software” that’s been around since 1990?

    Or is it the fact that you are ignorant and arrogant, a potent combination, and resent being called out on your shit?

    Because of the “no restrictions on use” thing.

    I’m happy this arrangement works for you, but it’s clearly pushing beyond the boundaries of OSI-defined open source, let alone Free Software.

    As someone recently told me, they don’t worry about saving lives, they worry about saving souls.

    You need to abide by the quaint rules of the magical sky daddy for that, even if they don’t make sense.

    Lemmy has brought me to unprecedented levels of smugness

    This has great circlebroke potential.
