You know; I realize these corporations, are fundamentally corporations; and their not going to liberate the source to anything that has a chance of actually competing with their that has a chance of competing with their modern offerings. BUT like, DOS 4.0, and now... Comic Chat? Instead of giving us the dregs, how about some stuff that ... would actually have some folks interested in toying around with the software? Like Windows 3.1 ? Xenix ? Early Visual C++ or Visual Basic ? Chip's Challenge ? AND you too Apple. Like yeah the Lisa Source Code was kinda cool, but macOS 8 and 9 would be a whole lot cooler. https://opensource.microsoft.com/blog/2026/07/16/microsoft-comic-chat-is-now-open-source

    @trashheap@tech.lgbt I do agree, but I know exactly why Xenix won't be open sourced: it was sold to what became SCO. You know, the people that tried to sue Linux.
