There are non-FOSS alternatives to Unity. For tinkerers, sure, it doesn’t matter. But if you plan on releasing a product, the licensing of your engine starts to matter a lot more. The question should really be, is there trust left in Unity? Even using a less powerful or more expensive engine, might be a better option across your product lifetime, depending on the licensing terms or them being changed retroactively (that really should be fucking illegal, but oh well).
I’m not sure if it’s spelled out in the ToS, but there is no way to prevent pull requests on public repos, it’s a functional requirement.
You have to make a fork aka copy and modify to contribute via pull requests. The license is fundamentally broken.
No audit, no 2FA, no transparency report, limited servers, proprietary clients. There are better options.

Gaming communities are hard to grow since they require people who play the game to participate. You can only grow it on your own so much by posting the latest news.

It’s definitely not something a regular user should panic over. But it’s a huge deal since a lot of high security, sensitive targets also rely on the same library.
While the researchers have confirmed all YubiKey 5 series models can be cloned, they haven’t tested other devices using the microcontroller, such as the SLE78 made by Infineon and successor microcontrollers known as the Infineon Optiga Trust M and the Infineon Optiga TPM. The researchers suspect that any device using any of these three microcontrollers and the Infineon cryptographic library contains the same vulnerability.
Both. The cryptographic library in question is also used in other cryptographic applications too, so it’s a huge mess.
Mattermost is only source-available due to their dual licensing.
There were warrants issued on March 25 to him and his brother, which were ignored.

You are correct, I somehow got confused… It was v1.2.0 release, I updated my original post. The release didn’t even mention the license change. https://github.com/eythaann/Seelen-UI/releases/tag/v1.2.0
It’s another fake open source license. While source code is public under the license, you can’t modify or republish so if the project decides to sell you are fucked.
v1.2.0 release changed the license from MIT to PolyForm Strict License 1.0.0 which removes ability to re-publish and make changes to the project. In the day when fake open source projects sell out daily, it’s a good sign to avoid this project.
The video is 2 part, first is the summary of the case and another is about why this argument from Disney is the biggest pro piracy argument.
Basically, the case is about a doctor who had a food allergy and went to a Disney owned restaurant that promised to cater to people with food allergies. The doctor asked staff 5 times to make sure they were aware of her allergies, and all 5 times they said yes. It’s literally the most straightforward wrongful death case ever. But then Disney decided they want to fuck more people over, so they made an argument that the case should tossed and move to arbitration because her husband signed up to Disney streaming service on a free trial, years ago. And Disney is ignoring a lot of other facts, like that husband is not the one suing, her estate is, he cancelled the trial before the period ended, so he wasn’t even a subscriber at the time. The streaming site has an arbitration clause, but Disney park doesn’t so it doesn’t even matter. If the case can’t go forward, it will be only because US is a corporate-owned shithole, legally it’s a moot argument.
As far as piracy, it just highlights how fucked up everything is since if the husband just pirated, DIsney couldn’t have used that argument in court. So Disney created a situation now that if you want to be able to sue them for your loved one’s death - pirate Disney. It’s the most pro piracy argument that even the biggest normies can relate to.
