  • If it gets “stolen” by a for-profit corporation it only makes it better, because now my software has reached more people, thus (theoretically) improving their lives.

    well that’s a very idealistic, and capitalistic way of looking at this (i.e. for-profit corporation is making a profit only because it’s making people’s lives better). which just isn’t the case in real life.

    realistically, when you release something in a permissive license, you are more likely to improve someone’s bottom line, than to improve people’s lives in general.



  • Well since so many people recommend btrfs because “it have never lost any data for me”. I want to suggest OP to never use btrfs ever. Because it has lost my data, at least three separate times, the most recent time a week ago. And it’s not because of a power loss or anything, it just corrupted my files for absolutely no reason at all.

    Stay away from btrfs at all costs.
