Do you respect coders who haven't built their own open source open access program?

I am coding a program at the moment and I won't open source it too. It is my multi billion idea, make your own and don't steal.

I only respect people that develop proprietary software. If you develop open source software and you're not employed by some company to do it, you're a cuck.

Depends. I respect people who coded something themselves from 0 and learned along the way. Whether it's open-source or not I don't care. If you only worked for corpo-sloppers, you mightbe a nice person, but it's unlikely you've even been give the chance to build something from scratch. Not these days anyway.

I make my own open source port knocking daemon that uses a key and TOTP. I get all kinds of respect and people love me

If they're good at their job, sure.

thinking like this is retarded
you can spend your time on reinventing wheels, or you can use existing wheels to build novel things
you have limited time on this planet, so choose wisely.

>they do it for free
kinda sad

>>105642356 (OP)
I respect their distance if you know what mean. A dieing breed, same sort that thinks ip is a good thing and drives innovation when its just used to patent troll and lawfare.

Context and relevancy is key now. Proprietary software cant compose, they buuld themselves moats and enshittify themselves within.

No one respects coders.
Programming is not a respectable job for a man.
