What you write about is a _practical_ advantage of OpenSource/Free software. I don't argue that there are practical advantages, I really enjoy them.<br>
What I'm rallying against is the FSF's view that it's not the practical advantages but the philosophical ones that matter - and that is simple bullshit.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br></div></div></blockquote>
<div><br>why do you think that has motivated me to become a free software developer at all? Yes, Mr Stallman articles!<br>I showed you a practical advantage, but my motivations are strongly philosophical.<br><br>And, please, don't say that our strong commitment (it's been almost 3 decades of hard work...) to user autonomy and our struggle to unlock creativity is bullshit! What are your personal goals?<br>
