@ -25,6 +25,8 @@ The open source definition is maintained by the [Open Source Initiative](osi.md)
9. **The license must not restrict other software**, i.e. it cannot for example be forbidden to run the software alongside some other piece of software.
10. **The license must be technology neutral**, i.e. it cannot for example limit the software to certain platform or API.
Besides this main legal definition open source is also a cult that comes with its own rituals and ways of thinking, again, mostly harmful ones like embracing [update culture](update_culture.md) which allows the overlords to push something to people and then keep reshaping it silently with "updates" as they're using it (see e.g. the infamous [xz](xz.md) incident in [Linux](linux.md)).
Open source furthermore greatly fails for example by not accepting [CC0](cc0.md) as a valid license and not accepting [esoteric programming languages](esolang.md) (because they're "obfuscated"). All in all, avoid open source, support [free software](free_software.md).
