@phryk No, FOSS includes both OSS and Libre software…
I know what I've said, and I stand by this statement:
Only Libre software is inherently socialist, not "open source".
"open source" has proved a shitload of times that's it's perfectly capitalism-compliant and gives more power to companies at the expenses of individuals, many capitalist companies including google, amazon, even M$ et facebook… to name a few, but there is many others, use or produce " open source" stuff.
@phryk While libre software is about ethics and freedom, "open source" is just a less-expensive way to produce software… Just perfect to make profit from other's people work by working AND spending less money on the process (e.g discord using opus, WebRTC and a shitload of other's people work in their proprietary for-profit company, without giving anything in return…)
And companies can still use the "open source" argument to gain user trust, even when it's "cloud" + proprietary code
