I'm worried that the baby thinks people can't change.

Agree, the fact that it's been normalized that devs with no affiliation to the project should fix massive corporations messes through pull requests or whatever is absolutely crazy and does not value the labour of the developer working on something they shouldn't have to
Yes, and furthermore, I received multiple requests from people to "change the license" of refterm from GPLv2 to something Microsoft can use. Because apparently it's my job not only to fix their program for them, but also to give it to them for free?
While I don’t entirely disagree, it does feel a bit antagonistic to say “i solved this, but you can’t use my code”. Feels more like a middle finger than trying to be helpful/productive
It is weird that wanting to get paid when your code is used commercially is now "unhelpful" or "unproductive". Shouldn't the standard case be that if Microsoft uses someone's code, they pay for it? They have figuratively infinite money at this scale.
It’s not weird to want to get paid, but the way it’s presented feels like a middle finger / told-ya-so / vendetta rather than a legitimate attempt to make some money. Maybe I’m reading right, again this is just my opinion, I have no horse in this race. 1/2
Well the endeavor is 100% middle finger for sure, because I was very, very angry. But the middle finger part exists separately from the GPLv2, so I would stand by the argument for GPLv2 code when it comes to Microsoft (since GPLv2 nicely allows Linux folks to use the code, etc.)
One part that was left out of this entire thing was that one of the devs then used an alias and logged onto our discord at Molly Rocket - there was a whole other situation. To say I was fuming at the Windows Terminal team would be an understatement.
What was the Discord situation about?
I'd rather not go into it, but suffice to say, it pissed me off even more than I was already pissed off.
