Based on FUTO’s own response, they don’t put logos on the front page to “simplify things”. I think that’s a little weird. Is source-available distinct from open source? Still not sure how that makes them “evil” though, starting to think user Novi Sad might have been making a joke by calling them evil, perhaps being playful.

Yes, source available is distinct from open source. Source available just means you can see the code. Open source allows you to modify and redistribute the code.

  No, that’s the difference between Open Source Software and Free Software
