People create a copy of NotePad++, a 23 year old great windows editor for macOS. People are also mad that Don Ho doesn’t endorse the trademark(!) violation and snap at him.
Yes the source is GNU, no, doesn’t make the AI slop clone better. Name is not GNU.

@rotnroll666@mastodon.social This is so stupid. When we forked Camunda, we had two sessions with a (great) lawyer specialized in OSS about stuff like that. Another fork tried to keep all the package names, class names with the trademarked terms. Didn't work out that well for them. OSS is not free for all, more and more people seem to forget that
