MODERATORS
And that’s literally what the article says lol I don’t know why you were downvoted.
The binary mentioned is different. Omier was saying either you share all the source code, or it's not open-source. You don't get to retain some proprietary blob for an essential component and still say the whole app is open-source. Pricing is an entirely different question.
