Atlas-OS/Atlas: 🚀 Open and lightweight custom Windows builds, designed to optimize performance, privacy and usability. - #AtlasOS, or Atlas, is an open-source project (#MIT / #GPLv3)that enhances #Windows by conveniently applying privacy, usability, and performance optimizations, all while maintaining functionality and customizability.

Get Linux or waste time with this ? Intriguing.

@katyswain I din't think that #CCSS is good either, but the demands of #GPLv3 are not compatible with the (adnitteldy shitty) reality of how #IP, #Licensing and #Patents work and thus it kneecaps a lot of things.

I chose #0BSD for _OS/1337 because as with any "intellectual labour", one cannot force others to collaborate and I'd rather have people join in out of the goodness of their hearts instead of just dumping some random git commit that is useless.

Today, @richardfontana & I restarted, relaunched, & revitalized copyleft-next.

All versions & variants of #GPL are great licenses. But, today, #GPLv3 turned 18 years old & #GPLv2 turned 34 years old.

At least once in a generation, #FOSS needs a new approach to strong #copyleft.

These posts have details: lists.copyleft.org/pipermail/n & fedi.copyleft.org/@next/114769

I ask you to follow @next & check out our website at next.copyleft.org/.

FYI: I'll migrate this account to @bkuhn@copyleft.org later this week.

Today, we (@bkuhn & @richardfontana) excitedly announce that we have restarted, revitalized, and relaunched copyleft-next!

Today, #GPLv3 turns exactly 18 years old. This month, #GPLv2 turned 34 years old. These are both great licenses and we love them. Nevertheless, at least once in a generation, #FOSS needs a new approach to strong #copyleft.

GrapheneOS: Where Licenses Matter More Than People

I chose to write this.

**update**: If you are using this post as some kind of call-to-action to harass and attack the GOS developers, please don't.

That damages everyone. You, them, and myself. It's not helpful.

**Update two**. I have made the decision to pull this post. It is not a good starting-point for a discussion, and just encourages defensiveness on both sides – when there really aren't sides here at all.

As a FOSS contributor, I am deeply ashamed at the way I approached this out of frustration.

@kotaro gramted, all of tuhe #Forks that are #BSD-licensed had way more #effort put into them.

#SSPL is still worse than #AGPLv3, but #AGPL & #GPLv3 are just completely disregarding the legal reality of #IP and #Licensing.

Needless to say if I were a #developer of it and had contributed under #BSD license I'd expect to either get my code removed entirely or the license to be kept the same.
