Fine Uploader is shutting down
&gt; I&#x27;ve grown tired of continuously defending my inactivity and decisions against trolls on Twitter, the issue tracker, and elsewhere. It&#x27;s draining and I don&#x27;t have the patience or energy to deal with it any longer. These same people expect to impose their short-sighted and non-generalized values and goals on a project for which they have contributed nothing and are not willing to maintain. The sense of entitlement from a small but vocal minority that do not understand FOSS and refuse to understand it is very much a concern, and I&#x27;m simply not interested in shrugging that off anymore.<p>In the last three days, I&#x27;ve been accused of my code not being open source and that I should remove all mentions of open source from everything I owned, because I simply haven&#x27;t pushed to Github in a month or two.<p>This was joined by another user who claimed that open source license legally forces me to make the &#x27;secret&#x27; code I&#x27;ve been holding off public, which, again, does not exist, because the code on the repo was effectively current.<p>I&#x27;ve been working full time for the last 8 months, on my own savings, to provide a peer-to-peer mass communication tool, and I&#x27;m releasing it for free.<p>To say that this made me feel <i>horrible</i> for the past few days would be an understatement.
