Here and there are posts about tailwind losing its revenue stream. And then people / post authors conclude open source is lost and spread FUD.

Do you think your projects die because of LLMs?

I only have public hobby projects, I am not afraid. I also try to donate to a lot of free software that I use or like.

But it's actually grown. It fully didn't exist 70 years ago.

What purpose would it serve to share the source to programs that people couldn't use? And how would they have distributed it back then?

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 week ago

Oh okay. But the point that it sure has grown stands.
