Exactly as the title says, do you guys think Reddit will buckle and at least be more reasonable or maybe even reverse their current decisions?
Edit: if not lemmy to the moon 🚀

Reddit used the MIT license which is dogshit. It not only allows people to steal your work and not contribute back, but it also allows you to revoke the Open Source nature at any time.
Lemmy uses AGPL, which is pretty much the best pro-Open Source license out there. It is copyright violation to run a modified Lemmy instance and decline sharing the source code.
Edit: and just following up on this, it’s thanks to AGPL that Truth Social had to release their source code too.
Well that’s good to know, thanks for the info. I’m a garbage programmer so I’m not familiar with the nuances of open-source licenses, and have only ever used MIT, because it was the most permissive and I never wrote anything worth stealing or that I really gave a shit about lmao.
