    it’s the other way around honestly. the guy is pretty solid when an actual user inquires or opens an issue. the bug reported is from a company that is trying to integrate their custom commercial product on top of the open source platform. it’s pretty shady practice if you ask me

      If companies follow the license it’s legal.

      Yes, it would be good if the companies shared some of the wealth they generate back to the free projects that power the company.

        i cannot agree more with you.

        i’ve been following that project for some time and this is not the first time something similar has happened. never mind his helping, there has never been any trickle down to him 😂 i kinda feel for him

          That’s the open source life though :/

          Almost nobody gets rich from open source. You’re explicitly granting rights that people usually pay for.

          It’s noble, but it sucks.
