TL DR: Don't be a dick just because someone did not contribute code.īeta Was this translation helpful? Give not trying to dispute anything you're saying nor am I trying to say we'll never do what you suggest I'm just trying to understand your point of view. So why did I write anyway? Because I think your behavior is not appropriate and everyone reacting to your post in a positive way (which includes you 4 times) should reevaluate if they think that it is fine. You have demonstrated that your idea of a constructive discussion is entirely different from mine. Making the OpenSource community more toxic is in no way helpful, and if you feel like it you can now aim your guns at me and write a reply but I honestly do not care about what you write. In any way, it's not our business to tell somebody else to what projects they should contribute to.
So why on earth would you think that he would be able to contribute to maui? Maybe he could and just doesn't have the time to do so.
#MICROSOFT TO DO LINUX PATCH#
(me sending a patch to OpenSSL would probably be a bad seems to be focused on TypeScript, rather than C# (at least going by his public repos).
So I can be productive on other projects while somebody else does the work at these projects. But why should I? They all use a language I am not at all familiar with.
#MICROSOFT TO DO LINUX CODE#
Would you consider everyone who did not contribute in code a "freeloaser"? Aren't bug-reports and feature-suggestions (and discussions like this one) also contributions? Sure, I could try to contribute to OpenSSL, the Kernel, or sway. – we both have a different understanding of OSS – which is fine, don't get me wrong – but I think insulting someone because they did not contribute code to the project is just no way to have a discussion. That's right, it's 0, you freeloaser (That word is a mixture of freeloader, and another word) Tell me this, how many pulls have you made to this project yet? This is another anti-Linux/pro-proprietary signal being sent in the ecosystem.īeta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback. If you ask me, Linux support should have been the first priority for this project.Ĭc. So don't be cryptic about things: What is it really and does Microsoft have the courage to be honest instead of trying to get out of a negative perception by being disingenuous. net for Linux and look at how much mindshare it's starting to generate (TypeScript indirectly enjoys a similar phenomenon). Going the other direction, Microsoft has no problems maintaining.
#MICROSOFT TO DO LINUX ANDROID#
As is railroading conversation about this out of sight into the discussions area where it can be safely ignored.Īs clever of an answer as it seems, here's how people see the situation: Android is open source too, but Microsoft has spared no expense there for maui. For a company trying to push such a progressive agenda, gaslighting Linux users by "explaining" that because Linux is open source, the only way to have Linux support is from the community is frankly cruel. I also want to comment on the official responses to calls for Linux support. Not because the telemetry and feedback indicate it, but because until it's truly cross-platform, Microsoft is still sending the "We want to lure you into Windows" signal.
Moreover if Microsoft really wants maui to succeed, then they should know that lack of first class Linux support is basically what will ultimately hold it back. Especially one that has been so obviously neglected due to internal policy. Nobody is going to come and completely reimplement one in a long streak of desktop SDK+library flops just for Internet points. But knowing that Microsoft gets colder quarter after quarter on "we love Linux", the official take so far here comes as no surprise. I would normally have been quite excited to hear about maui.
