It’s not the most well-written article, but it does convey what Perens is concerned about - particularly the fundamental flaws we are all accustomed to - usability issues of OSS from a UX perspective and lack of time/interest to improve, the flaws that lead to closed source conversions and clauses. We really do need a new path forward. Even what’s proposed feels akin to the sponsorship model, that I wonder is just a dream more than reality.
Maybe we do need some sort of regulation in the software market to truly incentivize or keep the FLOSS wheel going…
I think I probably agree with all these statements. New Nether lost the allure for me, exploring tidied a lot of the cute chunk generation bugs etc.
Buuut to be honest I didn’t watch the video. 5 mins in and the creator hadn’t really provided any reasoning to back up any points and was just repeating the premise in different ways. Not a well paced video….
