    Ironically it's this Behaviour shown here that will prevent me from ever opensourcing my personal Projects and thus becoming a FOSS-Contributor.

    So no, I am not. And it is in large Parts thanks to you.

    Then why are you here? The very platform your saying this on is FOSS, and it's filled with FOSS bros.

    Unironically why are you here?

    Talks about gatekeep while crying about all his projects he will keep all to himself. You are a special kind of insufferable, huh?

    You are not entitled to my work. If you want access to them, stop being an insufferable entitled brat. It's exactly this behavior why I won't open-source them. Are you too dense to see how toxic parts of this community are?

    At least I donate to Foss-projects.

    Can you say that about yourself?

    You can be smug and feel superior all you want, in the end, any contributions you could make would be worthless anyway :)

    Dude, people defending themselves when you attacked everyone with insults is not toxic. Your comments on the other hand are toxic indeed. You should be banned minimum for being an incendiary petty troll.

    banned minimum

    and maximum what? beaten up?

    incendiary petty troll

    so not wanting to slave away for free for people that feel entitled to my work makes me an incendiary troll? then I'll proudly wear that name as a badge.

    So you are a confessed troll. Good to confirm. If you don't want to participate, then don't. Nobody cares about your opinion, specially when it is specifically meant to insult and destroy. We don't want your attitude here.

    You can stay all you want, the best part of FOSS projects is that anyone can use and contribute. Even menial things such as messages on a FOSS social platform.

    But you never answered my question. What compels you to use Lemmy, while being anti-FOSS yourself?

    I don't want you to leave, stay by all means, I just want to know.

    Where did I say that I'm anti-Foss? Please show me the exact location.

    Please explain to me how I'm anti-Foss when I'm practically only using Foss projects and donating to them.

    I want to know exactly how I'm supposed to know any of that. Should I stalk you? Look at every account you have and learn everything there is to know? And who is saying your telling the truth?

    Someone who touts "never making my projects open source because muh feelings" then says this has alot of double standards I think.

    okay, so let me recap:

    1. you make false assumptions about me
    2. i correct those false assumptions
    3. you tell me it's not your fault you made those wrong assumptions but actually mine

    that's some prime gaslighting my dude

    since you apparently aren't arguing in good faith, i will not further entertain to you.

    a goodbye-word for you: you can't act like you know something about me (that i'm anti-foss) and then when you're called out on your BS take the Position "how am i supposed to know anything about you?!"

    So to get it straight... You call people stating their preference on an open source project as being an entitled brat, while simultaneously saying you'll never make any open source contributions while using open source because you wouldn't like anyone disagreeing with you? That seems pretty entitled...

    Good, because the attitude you have means you'll only develop for your own use case and then call anyone else an entitled brat. We don't want your shitty project if you're so narrow minded. Please keep it off of repo's and don't risk anyone accidentally rolling it in and creating even more worthless noise.

    Entitled brat? What... Have you ever seen how GNOME developers respond to some bug reports and merge requests?

    Since when has reporting bugs and contributing to the project become an entitlement?

    Did I say "some"? I think I did.

    GNOME developers seem to have some sort of a weird "vision" for their software. If your bug report falls within their vision, good for you. When your bug report doesn't, it's insta WONTFIX.

    The FDO icon theme fiasco occurred merely a few days ago.

    People who do work for themselves and share it with other people don't do work for other people, big shocker.

    Like, seriously, if your Neighbor makes a cake and shares it with you, do you also ask them "that's nice but can you next time make [cake i like]?"? no! you say thank you and you're grateful someone is sharing their hard work with you!

    People who do work for themselves

    Did you notice that I said "merge request" earlier? Your neighbours were kindly helping you to make a cake and you responded to their kindness with GTFO.

    If your code isn't up to par, or your feature isn't relevant enough and doesn't fit "the vision", it's correct to deny it. On top of diluting the project contributed code add a maintainership cost that the random contributor will probably not be footing.

    Accept everything in your cake and tomorrow it'll be an inedible mess that nobody wants. It's ok for software to be aimed at different people.
