ESL?
He's probably indian
Jeets love closed source code because they can steal most of it and no one will know.
>You only hear about FOSS on IQfy because FOSS doesn't go anywhere
moron.
Literally every closed source project you use is built on FOSS on some level. You're just too much of a techlet to know that.
>commie cope
Many such cases. Enjoy going nowhere in your life.
Hit a nerve, Rajesh? You'll beg ChatGPT to save your 10 rupee a day job, and it'll look toward open source to do so.
>going nowhere
Some of the highest paid programmers in the industry contribute to open source.
Being successful and enjoying what you do are intrinsically linked.
>um akshually being a moronic cultist for a dead movement is good because smart successful people use the stuff i wasted my life on for no return
Advocating against freedom isn't sensible.
FOSS isn't freedom. Compare gimp to Photoshop. Totally shit.
>gimp is all of FOSS
Uh huh. Anything else?
Give me one example of a FOSS software that's better than a proprietary equivalent.
blender
git
>ffmpeg
>yt-dlp
>keepass(xc)
>git
>pfsense/opnsense
>veracrypt
been quiet ever since
Linux
>OBS
>KDE connect
>openwrt
Anything else or was this anal rape enough?
>Compare gimp to Photoshop.
GIMP doesn't use AI to spy on you, or try to claim it owns license to your work, or try to assert content moderation over what you are allowed to create with it.
It doesn't matter what features your software has when the TOS is so awful
>or try to assert content moderation over what you are allowed to create with it.
Was that seriously also part of their new ToS? Not that I doubt it, sounds exactly like something Adobe would do, I just haven't heard about that yet.
GIMP
>shitty software
>do whatever with it lmao nobody cares
~~*Photoshop*~~
>better software
>UUH WE RAISED THE MONTHLY PRICE BY $300 AGAIN SEETHE CHUDS
>(ALSO WE OWN EVERYTHING YOU MAKE)
>Why are people so cheap
You really don't have the first fricking clue what you're talking about do you?
>closed source advocates
Because it doesn't require advocacy? If you want to buy a product or use a service that won't let you view the source, nobody is stopping you. No additional infrastructure needs to be created to allow you to consume products and then get excited for next products.
Normies won't care as they're all doing the same thing anyways.
Jesus christ said once; "What did Jesus mean when He said, "It is not right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs? (Matthew 15:26 ESV)"
Some people might think he just talking about not spreading the word of good to gentiles, but what he really meant was: "Do not waste your time replying to retärds because Its not worth It."
There's no need to advocate for proprietary software because it already runs the world.
ESL thread.
Looking at the absolute state of this thread I'd say clinical brain death thread.
When id Software open sourced the id Tech 3 engine (a.k.a the Quake 3 engine) under the GPL license, it led to the community-based ioquake3 project which was used by the community to create an array of cool games with, such as Tremulous, OpenArena, Urban Terror, World of Padman.
ioquake3 project is still being developed even today, with the latest commit being merged 5 days ago, almost 19 years after id Software discontinued developing the original id Tech 3 engine to work on their later id Tech engines.

Had it remained proprietary, this would not have been happening. FOSS is a blessing that keeps on giving.
It's something you're either indifferent towards or opposed to. There's no logical reason to be a "closed source advocate", or what that functionality amounts to, an anti-FOSS advocate.
>There's no logical reason to be a "closed source advocate", or what that functionality amounts to, an anti-FOSS advocate
Proprietary software is always superior and in theory closed source is more secure provided it is independently audited.
>Proprietary software is always superior
How? Elaborate on this.
>Proprietary software is always superior
Then the market will naturally favor proprietary software and you're back to indifference.
>no logical reason
the more FOSS, the more china steals
If your code doesn't do anything malicious to the user, you have nothing to hide (your source code, that is)
Corporate don't want to open source because it would expose the amount of pajeet code they actually use in production. We have an entire team dedicated to catching jeets bugs, because somehow it's still cheaper than having normal developers do the code. Clow world knee deep in fecal matter.
Great comeback at the "you have nothing to hide" morons.
>Why isn't there closed source advocates?
Because most of us don't waste our time coming here to immerse ourselves kneedeep in squabbling moronic children bickering over web browsers and linux distros who will never make anything of themselves. You only hear about FOSS on IQfy because FOSS doesn't go anywhere and neither do typical IQfy misfits.
I'm unique because I've been an autist since the days of programming on the Spectrum and I came to this place in its founding year, it's my one vice I can't quit. And damn if it isn't ridiculous watching the infants bickering over stupid shit every day and waging/neeting away instead of starting businesses.
You're comparing visuals. Normie cars are trash nowadays, they're constantly breaking, have no performance and the parts are expensive. Thanks israelites.
The bottom is just the top one except it has the bottom painted onto the metal
Some of the best , most concise and beautiful code ever written is open source. You just don't realize how shit closed source is because you can't see it. but if you want a taste, go look up the Windows leaks that happen every version and glance at Poojeets adding UI's on top of UI's, using Javascript to finalize performance-critical features, and locking important system-critical components to user-controlled variables like current available memory or existing desktop framerate.
All in all, frick off poojeet
You act like jeets haven't infected Linux as well. Funny how there are never these sorts of bugs on Windows.
>Meanwhile tapping "Scroll desktop" more than twice on windows creates a 10 second queue time for the animations to finish
lol
it just has even more moronic bugs
>Funny how there are never these sorts of bugs on Windows.
I get this sort of bugs on windows 11 day, sometimes opening notepad makes the computer freeze.

Use a usefull DE, like XFCE and you wont have this, Is not like not like every DE is as shit as KDE is. And, unlike with Windows on linux you can choose any DE you like, if something doesn't work replace It by something better.

'Closed source advocates' do exist. They are calles 'Shills'.
If your source is closed it implies you have something to hide.
The closed source image should have picrel in the corner somewhere.
The sad thing is that people subscribe to this.
BMWs are such garbage I completely understand why if the piece of shit will get totaled before a full year
Anon, the car isn't rented, it's only the button that turns the seat heating on that is rented. That's right, BMW tried to pull mtx in cars.
the closed source advocates are all lobbyists
i like tesla as an example because just like with microsoft, people everywhere are growing tired of the bullshit they keep pulling amd desperately want an alternative thats actually tailored to providing a good user experience and not just extracting money from customers for a faulty product
I don't advocate it but I intend to release any programs I make as closed source purely because FOSS people have annoyed me and i don't want to be associated with them.
(But I'm mostly making games and niche tools with limited use cases, so it's not a particularly harmful act of spite)

why would anyone put fricking tesla in that pic? find some BMW or Mercedes. even some dodge charger would be better than that powerbank shit.
back when the image was made, ice cars you could still work on yourself, modify however you wanted, put in parts you got from anywhere, etc. Tesla was ahead of the curve in that if you want someone to touch them, you pretty much have to send them to a tesla authorized shop and use tesla built parts. Also, people didn't have an automatic disdain for tesla yet.
>> Why are people so cheap
It has nothing to do with price you dumb motherfricker closed source can be free to use too and open source can be pay to use
I love seeing Machomosexuals posting this image that is predicated on the idea that a Tesla is a cool car, but it isn't. It is the gayest fricking car imaginable. In reality open source car is a modified classic car and closed source car is a BMW with seat warmer subscriptions.
>It's almost like a criminal if you are for closed source
correct.
now have a nice day.
I took a nice photo, therefore the product is nice and good quality!
