What does this even mean? You used free software made by others to your benefit or profit and that's your "credentials"?
What in the actual fuck. How about you start a project without expecting anything and be the change you want to see?
No one else needs to run by your "label", people who are knowledgeable know people need to earn to eat and have to make a livelihood.
No ones stopping you from using the base opensource code to extend it to your liking.
This is just open-source entitlelism. Nobody owes you shit.
Oh no, someone used open source software for their own purposes, free of any monetary obligations or restrictions! Wait, that's the whole fucking point.
"supported", dictionaries are pretty cheap you know...
