It just means the developer posted the source code of their program for others to use. There’s nothing wrong with it. Id open sourced their Doom and Quake games back in the 90’s. Valve recently open sourced Team Fortress 2.
So you’re free to play around with the code and make changes, but if you want the full game with all the maps, you still have to buy a copy.
Disclaimer before anyone jumps on me, that’s just two examples. There are tons of different types of open sources licenses.
Lol, my bad. I didn’t pick up on the satire in your comment. I guess I knew posting about Linux would be a shitstorm and I was mentally prepared for the worst.
Maybe you are still confusing this place with somewhere else. Were all linux users here, even those that are running windows are either doing so in dualboot or as potential linux users to be indoctrinated into our cult.
Funny you should say that cus if you asked me two months ago if I’d consider Linux I’d tell you no, now I’m doing reasearch to finally achieve transcendence

There are people here that don’t yet realize that they are future Linux users too.

All windows users are temporarily embarrassed Linux users.
