Oh that one really makes you think doesn’t it.

I mean, that’s just arguing over whether or not the definition of “supply” implies “compensation”, which isn’t very interesting imho.

The grandparent’s point remains the same, the software ecosystem and its supply chain or however you want to call it is a hot mess.

Traditionally the term "supply chain" has implied a buyer/seller relationship

I think that’s up to debate, and my point is that debating whether free software counts as “supply” or not is really not that interesting.

So what?
