"open source" is not a solution to a damn thing. It is, by design, a refusal to gatekeep.
I would. Know why? Because the Linux guys are getting kicked out of their own projects by "community managers".
I absolutely would conflate open source with open borders because that's the result in front of us.
Does the same thing not happen with closed source projects?
Yes. Hence my reference to gatekeeping. Organizations that don't do it, fail.
However, some forms of organization are inherently incapable of gatekeeping. I'm arguing that open source has this flaw.
