I really dislike the attitude that open source maintainers should adapt their code to comply with any bullshit requirements from random companies just so they can use the code. Be grateful that someone wrote code for you to use freely.

On the plus side, adding profanity once it is scanned for sounds like another way to weed out some commercial use without explicitly weeding out some commercial use..

That could be handy to an already annoyed maintainer.

I thought that's why they named those cities with suggestive names, to keep out other (literal) religions.

There are multiple places named Peoria, such as IL, named after a native American group: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peoria,_Illinois

And I suspect that it is not an accident, and that the founders were well-aware that "Peor(ia)" carries negative connotations not only for Jews and Christians (Nm 23-25, Dt 3), but also for anyone who spoke Spanish--it would be like "Let's move to Shitty Heresy-Scandal Town? No thanks!"

You could sell a commercial license to a "swear free" version, haha.

If it's open source everyone is allowed to create derivative works. That includes companies with a stick up their ass. They should get their shit together and god damn fork it themselves. Or if everyone able to do it left because of this type of bullshit they can put their money where their mouth is and fucking pay someone to maintain a 'cleaned up' fork on their behalf.

What do you mean “put in effort”????

It’s open source, that means you do the work, and we get the outputs of your effort plus support when we require it, all for free, duh.

Clearly, if you didn’t want to do that, you wouldn’t have made it open source!

I hope that any response would be very colourful indeed.
