I’m all for “language evolving” Language exists to convey a shared concept In this case, the evolved version of open source fails to convey a shared concept in comparison to the prior term, “free and open source software” or FOSS for a shorthand adjective Here, people with knowledge of the lexicon are using it accurately, and people without knowledge of the lexicon or its etymology are complaining when they should be pushing for FOSS instead of getting surprised everytime |
