Give nothing, expect nothing: GitLab’s the latest punching bag for entitled users: Dissociated Press

This article discusses how some open-source software companies like Docker, GitLab, and Red Hat have faced backlash from users after removing free features or making changes to their free tier. The author argues that people who do not pay for a service have no right to complain about changes made by the company, as they are not contributing to the bottom line of the for-profit companies. Instead, the author suggests that users should either pay for the services or build their own alternatives if they want full control and freedom from proprietary bits and lock-in. The article highlights that most people who claim to support pure open source businesses may not actually put their money where their mouth is, leading to a situation where companies often prioritize profit over public good.
