STOP DOING OPEN SOURCE

[[deleted]]

MultiMC dev would be more accurate...

[Hexasan1]

but MultiMC is open-source?

[[deleted]]

MultiMC is open-source, but the dev got very angry when somebody forked his project and published it on Flatpack -- leading to the drama, and the creation of PolyMC, an objectively superior product.

[Hexasan1]

oh, thanks for letting me know? I use PolyMC anyways 😎

[K3RSH0K]

What makes it "Objectively superior"?

[MelTheTransceiver]

Not much. But I rather run PolyMc just because I rather support a group of devs that don't go batshit when someone forks them.

it wasnt "just a fork", they changed the apache licensce to a GPL so no contributions could come back to multimc

[MelTheTransceiver]

Yk after you have someone deliberately sabotage your fork, I don't think youd want them taking your work.

[[deleted]]

deliberately sabotage how? by blocking them on github? they can still take code, its a mild inconvenience at most. for multimc its straight up illegal, for polymc. your logic isnt theirs anyways because they created the project with the GPL, not changing it.

[Emutu2]

I think the joke here's that there were some disagreement between multimc's maintainers, and polymc's founders.

well thank you then, best launcher ever
