If you don’t like my indents or comments, we can have a discussion about it, but don’t try to sneak in changes through a PR. Although I’m very much aware that a lot of such rewrites may have been done automatically, either by specific editor settings or some sort of “AI” agent.</p><p>But still, you get a "thank you very much” but also a “..but I won't merge unless that 90% is reverted back to its original”.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/software" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>software</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/softwaredevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>softwaredevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>opensource</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/oss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>oss</span></a></p>

Free software movement focuses on freedom, but not friendly to the commercial world.

Open source movement emerged from free software movement. It replaced freedom with software development methodology. It is absolutely friendly to the commercial world.

#FreeSoftware #LibreSoftware #OpenSource #OpenCore

Edit: I am not against proprietary software. I am using Excel daily.
