We can complain just fine about whichever software we want, don't try to make up rules and come to us with fake outrage about even greater injustices.

This is a classical attempt to muddy the waters.

Ok, sure. At least complain for both. I didn't see the post referring to anything besides brew. I'm all for protesting and trying to fix any size and kind of injustice. But just don't target the less guilty. brew is still guilty for not having an even bigger announcement. But less target others too, at least. I would hate to see brew or any other similar software be the sole target and have to change for the worse, because it was unlucky enough to be the scapegoat.

That's because this post is about brew. Windows 10 got tons of flak when it pulled this crap as well. "There are worse cases" is not an excuse for a project doing something shitty.
