That's okay. Free/open source software in general is still considered to be utterly radioactive but there's enough developers out there willing to work with and on it that it isn't a problem. There's no reason why we should let corporations direct what we use and work on all the time ;)

The one where less than 99% of software is free/open source and where proprietary software is still considered a viable option unfortunately.

I thought you said you came from one where free software is radioactive.
