If I didn't got it wrong, Matt asked about copying it, you said it was ok because it is GPL and you think that makes him a bad person?

I think this outrage against Matt is terrible in many ways but people are getting away with accusing him of anything they felt wronged. We are talking about a guy that created something in the level of Linux and Wikipedia. Give him some credit and respect ffs.




They said something like “you’re allowed, but we’d prefer you didn’t.”

So it’s a “you’re not wrong you’re just an asshole” situation.
