Sounds more like a Freedombox problem for not supporting one of the best ways to run sevrer software ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Friendly reminder to use Bandcamp on Bandcamp Fridays when possible (they also sell merch without fees on those IIRC) and otherwise the Deezer Telegram bot or torrents or something
Soulseek with the Nicotine+ client is also a great option
Go on the official Taler Website, they have all the info there iirc
Every time this licenses comes up I have to repeat myself: It's source-available proprietary (free)ware; "source first" is "open source washing" at it's finest
From an old comment of mine:
[...] It strips you of the options the four essential freedoms provide.
IMO ["but protecting muh devs and making it financially viable as a for-profit"] is not rly an argument. Libre software is free as in freedom and not necessarily free as in beer. You could license it under the (A)GPL, charge for downloads in the Play store or for compiled binaries on ur website and ask for donations on F-Droid.
You could even do a freemium version where some features are locked in the binaries you distribute and need a license from ur website or smth (for those who don't want to use Google Play). (iirc SD Maid 2/SE does this)
E.g.: AFAIK the QT Framework (which I don't particularly like) is dual licensed, making it both Foss that ppl have to contribute back to and viable as a for-profit
Running a community-centred nonprofit is inherently more efficient resources-wise than paying managers and execs piles upon piles of cash in a for-profit scheme
Mostly "Disco Elysium" (translates from Latin to "I learn [the world of] Elysium" btw. OFC it's disco AF too)
And yes, it's been 6 years since release and 4 years since "The Final Cut".... ((:
I love this game SM. It's such a welcome break from the neoliberal postmodernist slop, being a genuine piece of art. I love it's materialist and politeconomic perspective on society; in general, the writing is just superb (there is no going back after it too, most games and art in general (including novels and films) might just seem mediocre afterwards)...
The writers did their research about basically everything they wrote about (even racial """science""", OFC depicted negatively), with a focus on psychology, political economy, sociology and philosophy.
Initially played it in 2021 (but save scummed a lot :/ ). Both me as a person, and my understanding of political economy and philosophy have grown quite a bit since then.
I tried replaying it in 2023, but didn't get very far (mostly due to mental health)
Recently my interest in the game rekindled and I'm trying to play as a progressive social democratic superstar hobocop this time lol
I've also been getting back into Counter Strike 2 the last few eeks, but it's taken a major backseat to Disco Elysium (a large factor being: I want to make a deck of Anki flashcards to memorise util lineups of the current map rotation; but I just can't summon the motivation for it, so it "blocks" me from playing)
I don't think you understand what "open source" means then?
To put it simply: a programme using a license that guarantees certain freedoms.
Chromium uses such a license: the 3-Clause BSD license
please don't insult the FSF like that by comparing it to the LF...
The FSF might be unpragmatic and (thus) often horribly out of date, but it's neither opportunistic nor engaged in corporate bootlickery.
At some times it can even be dogmatic, but you can at least mostly depend on it keepig it's spine and vision!
(even if I partially disagree with it, as it's doctrine does not take political economy — and thus the root problem that is capitalism — into account)
It is ironic, but that's the best you can get in terms of security on Android, which is why GrapheneOS supports nothing else
Just use Librewolf on desktop, Mull on your phone and be done with it
also I'd recommend Adnauseam instead of ublock. It's based on ublock but clicks on ads inseatd of blocking them.
Basically a form of protest against surveillance capitalism and obfuscation against it's methods.
They probably just want to cut down dev costs by outsourcing to ~~unpaid interns~~ volunteers

This is my take as well. I'm extremely disappointed they only went with a temporarily open license instead of a proper one, but using MIT is unfortunately to be expected from the Rust ecosystem for whatever reason...
