"Hey Internet, come do development on our product for free so we can monetize it. TIA"
It annoys me, too, because there's various open-source projects already, like QMMP and Audacious.
Are you complaining that they're going open source?
Most of the complaining I see is that they're not going open source, they're going "source available"
They just want more people being pushed to their NFT marketplace while getting free development. It's astounding they are getting so much good press.
