MongoDB's SSPL (Server Side Public License) sounds like an extremely strong copyleft form of free software license. It sounds like MongoDB took the AGPL and made it much stronger.
Respected "open source" groups have rejected MongoDB's copyleft open source free software license, such as the OSI, RedHat, and Debian.
The criticism of the SSPL do not seem to recognize that it is a copyleft free software license. Is the OSI really a protector of copyleft free software? The politics of these organizations seem to leaning anarcho-capitalist "libertarian".
I don't believe the SSPL will harm any specific field of endeavor. Databases are used in all fields of endeavor. They are usually one of many provided cloud computing services. Cloud computing services are used in most every field of endeavor these days. Even my toothbrush has a cloud database.
By rejecting the SSPL, the OSI, RedHat, Debian have appeared to have ignored the copyleft freedoms that the SSPL guarantees.
Today, we had a largish raid group of 11+ to take on an #OriginFormePalkia in - it turned out to be a good raid.
Just for fun, my strongest ditto was backing up my mega salamence who was in #1 position. Turns out that the ditto's shapeshift did not cancel out my salamance's mega form which was a happy surprise 😁
#Microsoft will stop providing #CloudServices to users in #Russia later this weeks as part of the sanctions package imposed on the country by its Western peers. Other major global #CloudProviders, #Amazon, and #Google, will soon follow in Microsoft’s footsteps for the same reason. #Ukraine
I haven't given this much thought, but am I the only one who would like to have a neat little #app (#gtk4#libadwaita, please 😜) that lists installed #opensource apps, allows you to add #cloudservices and other apps manually as well, and provides the ability to conveniently make #donations, set reminders, etc. all from one place?
This is why I keep telling you to stay the fuck away from a cloud-based business model.
Multiple companies all hit at once because of the shared hosting, instead of maintaining individual server rooms.
This is going to get worse before it gets better.
Worse by orders of magnitude.
At the rate we're going with cloud adoption, global warming isn't our biggest imminent problem.
