The simple truth is, that projects are forked when the needs of the original application aren't meeting the needs of another group of people.
In the case it's the threat of patents. Forking is good. It gives a wake up call the the original devs and gives us users more choice !!!

The Mono proponents complain about licence compatibility. Gnote is GPLv3 (or later).

Yes. Mono, a copy of Microsoft's .NET, does more harm than good.

Oh god forbid people use & program what they want ...
If you fuckers would waste less time with trolling the internet but actually start to create something perhaps then you could decide what language is used to program it. Till then just stfu, thanks.

I am here writing an analysis. How is that "trolling"?
We might never know the real number/s (Microsoft will keep the cards close to its chest) until there are leakers or unless there are whistleblowers with hard proof
LLMs are a passing fad; they're expensive and offer poor "value" for energy; they usually offer no value at all unless you are a cheater, spammer, and liar
"As reported by The Oxford Mail in April 2025, the offenses include rape, sexual assault, engaging in non-penetrative activity with a child, and more."
