This just validates my theory that open-sourcing old code that people have sentimental attachments for, and that you won't ever make any money off of, again is actually a terrible idea.

Everything about this leak is a long list of arguments why you shouldn't ever open source anything.

We, the developer community, have really dropped the ball here.

Why? Reddit is full of bug fixes and improved forks. Seems like it's Anthropic that's dropping the ball with it's takedown requests instead of engaging with the community.
