Subtweet: The term "Open Source" was created in Feb 1998 by a group of people who felt a new term with a clear definition was needed. So they created both the term "Open Source" and a document defining it unambiguously, the "Open Source Definition" (OSD). 1/2
"Well it depends on what definition of 'Open Source' you are using" is always either a bad faith argument, or comes from a place of ignorance. It's literally impossible for someone to be both, well informed about these issues, and using an argument like this in good faith. 2/2
no idea what you are talking about, but "Well it depends on what definition of 'Open Source' you are using" is not an argument. also, just because there was once one definite definition of a term does not mean there arent 42 trillion other definitions with the same name now.
I think that's like saying "Well it depends on what definition of 'European Convention on Human Rights' you are using". Also, usually when people refer to their own OS definitions, it turns out to be fringe BS like "well, we published some documentation so it's Open Source now".
I agree that a clear and well stablished definition of "open source" exists. The problem is that many actors in the software industry use the term without adhering to the definition. Sometimes intentionally.
It somehow reminds me of esoteric people claiming that their healing crystals or whatever are "based on quantum mechanics" and when you poke holes in their ridiculous claims they are like "yeah, well, I just have different definitions of what those physics terms actually mean".
You can't promote something as "does not contain sulfur hexafluoride or other greenhouse gases" and when people find out that this is a blatant lie defend yourself with saying you have your own definitions for the terms "sulfur hexafluoride" and "greenhouse gases".
Exactly, you wouldn't believe the number of times I've been at the other end of that argument. Even pointing at the OSD has resulted in, "Well, that's one definition."
