Gregory's Server@devinprater This reminds me of a heated FSF thread. FSF says that FOSS need not be accessible at all, which is technically true, but then they also say that all copies of the source code must be distributed w/binaries if binaries are distributed. But then they relaxed that b/c ppl often just want the binaries. So FSF says it’s good enough to distribute a link to the source w/the binaries.

@devinprater So in the end we have accessible binaries floating around with inaccessible source code and inaccessible docs, yet that still gets the “free software” label. |
@devinprater And that’s where shit falls apart. The link to the source code may be in some walled garden. And to that FSF says distribution is not a FOSS requirement.
