Great video! This honestly deserve more views

Highly appreciated

That is a great explanation. Thank you.

You didn't mention the most important component of successful open source software: the GPL license. That is what keeps any company from copyrighting your software and then demanding payment from you to let you use your own software. If you invest your time on software that a company can take back at any time, you effectively are working for that company for free, and you will not be even allowed to use the software you wrote later. Open source software is a great resource to learn programming and coding, but without a GPL license most projects don't get that far. Sure, there is BSD and X11, paid for the US government in the form of college grants, but GNU and Linux got to be the stupendous projects they are because they use the GPL license. Without GPL, you are strictly working for somebody else for free, you don't get money and you don't get the end product either.

Thank you for making this video :)

Very interesting video! We believe open-source is the best way to guarantee innovation, transparency & quality, and open-core is the best way to guarantee reliability.

Thank you very much Mr. Riss.

Thanks for the vid

Thank you!

I once very confused with free software and open source software. I actually once helped applying for open source license review for an open source project, ZenTao, but got rejected. Even more confused now.

nice

Big companies like Adobe hate Linux and open source ecosystem

Just came across this, how can I learn

So if any person can work on it, what is stopping someone from imbedding malware in the program or just destroying it? What if someone tries to improve it, but makes it much worse or inoperable?

There might be a few people who contribute to the project with malicious intents, but the number of coders who search for vulnerabilities is dozens of times higher and it's almost impossible for a dangerous exploit to get to the users' computer. This is the reason Linux is much more secure than Windows and MacOS

PLEASE work on it. make videos on how can I make changes in open source projects. what skill should required to work on it

Can someone tell it in long story short?

handbrake works

i always heard this term and assumed it meant what it was but wasn't 100% sure

is github really open source?

How does firefox makes money if its software is open source?

Where an I find open source software? By the way, great video.

If you wish to browse code, open source projects are often hosted on either GitHub or GitLab (GitHub being more popular). If you intend to use open source software and tools, I can't recommend enough that you try out a Linux distribution such as Manjaro or Pop!OS. Linux offers what is referred to as a package manager: a tool that allows you to install and manage all of the software installed on your system automatically. A common issue for open source software is managing dependencies, so using a package manager is extremely useful and convenient overall.

So open source has no license at all? Even the creator?

No, it has a license that allows the user to do almost whatever they want. No license doesn't mean no restrictions

wrr

Hi I'm Ariful Islam leeton im software engineer

some are open source but only few know how it really works ! they dot tell it to others. so code is opensource internal logic is. closed source. some clever way to earn money by using name"open" LOL

Open source software sounds like what cooperatives are in the business world as the workers themselves control the means of production without having to depend on a boss to tell them exactly how a company should run. It is no wonder this stuff is so controversial since people like Bill Gates and Elon Musk would much rather that we "elect" them through a popularity contest instead of a genuine democracy.

There is no such thing as open source software because if there were I would crash it and there would be artificial intelligence which doesn't exist yet.
