  • Frankly, I’m baffled to see such negativity here and in the github comments.

    Sure, winamp could have handled this better and just referred to the release as “source available” instead of “open source”. Then again, calling it “open source” is not that far fetched and is likely only going to annoy those who want to find fault in any case.

    It’s almost like “open source” has become a religion unto itself, with fanatic zealots defining what is and what isn’t acceptable - I kindly ask you to stop that bullshit, we have enough of these already.

    Having source available is infinitely better than not having it, so let’s keep that in mind. Obviously, this doesn’t mean that people cannot give constructive criticism on how to improve the situation, but most of the shit on display here make my eyes roll hard enough to cause strain: https://github.com/WinampDesktop/winamp/issues/6
