Congrats on the release!

How is lemmy-ui-leptos coming along? Curious to know when it might be ready for primetime.

What’s bad about IPv6?

The fact that this is the top comment sends a funny message about the Lemmy community as a whole.

Federated?

You’re just throwing together FOSS buzzwords at this point.

That’s obviously not what OP was referring to when mentioning “Firefox themes”.

I’m confused. I opened the first 6 issues featured in your lemmy-ui link and you closed them all yourself?

I’m guessing it’s mainly placebo.

Why did you list “privacy”?

Everyone can see your mental state degenerate in real time. You’re unable to stop yourself from flinging insults with every comment you type, be it here or in the other thread where you’re currently losing a debate.

And that’s how we know you’re out of arguments.

You’ve been unable to back up a single thing you said in this conversation with proof.

You had to walk back your accusations towards the dev, and you’re unable to actually point to the passage in the LGPL that supposedly binds the dev.

All you’re able to do at this point is call me a troll. You’re a parasite in the FOSS community who expects the work of others to be provided to them for free in perpetuity, and it pains you to realize it can be taken away from you.

What exactly did the FOSS community lose right there?

They can still use the versions that were licensed to them. The forks are right there.

However, you are not entitled to the dev distributing those versions for you.

It’s quite entitled and dishonest to expect free beta-testing, marketing, and clout from the use of FOSS as a shortcut for your product.

Either show us where they voiced this expectation, or stop talking out of your ass.

they licensed it as LGPL just to get their product popular and then said “I got the eyeballs I wanted, time to milk this!”

Show us where the dev said exactly that.

we are entitled to our ideology around FLOSS.

You are not entitled to anything. The dev simply released their work with a license that allows others to use it freely. Nothing more, nothing less.

So they just wanted people to test their product and market them for free?

Again, show us where they vocalized exactly that.

What about the compensation for people who beta-tested this product for free and recommended them to others?

What compensation were they expecting?

That just means they were looking for free marketing and eyeballs.

So far you’ve done nothing but put a whole bunch of malicious words into this developer’s mouth.

Is the license revoked because the dev deleted the previous code on their side?

Of course it isn’t. At least have your points make sense if you’re gonna behave like an ass.

That’s assuming you have something to elaborate with in the first place.

You’ll know best how far that attitude gets you.

You don’t have any good counterarguments, so you resort to insults.

And this is exactly why the dev of PySimpleGUI did what they did.

Whether they have a business case will depend on what happens on those forks. Will they be as maintained as the original was?

The amount of people who feel like they’re entitled to the previous code and are calling the license change scummy make me sick.

This developer put their own free time into this project, they made sure to not accept anyone else’s code, and they understandably felt they deserve to be paid for their time. Whether this was a smart move is another matter entirely.

The one case where I can understand being upset is if you donated shortly before this happened. But otherwise, you should really reflect on how you’re giving back to the people who make the tools you feel oh so entitled to.

How else do you expect their time to be paid for?

Donations?
