Co-founder of anytype is here. The most of are repos are open-source. We have our philosophy regarding open source here https://blog.anytype.io/our-open-philosophy/ Happy to discuss concerns regarding our approach.


Yeah no, that's not how open-source works. Your license is effectively a "source available" license and not officially approved by the OSI: https://opensource.org/licenses/


This is not an open source license:

https://opensource.org/osd/

6. No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor

The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program from being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research.


I don't see your license on this list -- https://opensource.org/licenses/

Please don't advertise anytype as open-source.


He literally voiced a concern and you just completed ignored it by linking a BS corporate speak page.

You are available on Github which doesn't = open-source

Also why only most and not all?
