Organic Maps had Kayak referral links since November 17, 2023.
After selecting some hotels, you can see an experimental “Details on Kayak” button that opens the Kayak website with photos and reviews about the selected hotel. If you make any booking using this button, Organic Maps receives a small referral bonus to fund the project development.
Because if there is proprietary code that is compiled, but can’t be read, it’s hard to know if there is data harvesting that people can’t opt out of. And proprietary code being added paves the way for more proprietary code. If this is an incorrect understanding, someone correct me.
I dont trust someone who has affiliate links in code to not be selling unique identifiers like ip adresses etc.
Linux has a great history of splitting hairs over philosophical purity and practical practices.
Honestly, a fork is a probably a perfect panacea. The project will become a pair; one procuring funding at the price of it’s soul, the other persisting as perfect (and pitifully prehistoric, save the proactive pedestrian). For a period both will produce positive momentum, but the paid product will peak higher and sooner, and fall precipitously. After the pitiable putrid product performs as well as pious poop, the persistent one will proceed to provide.
Patently, this Potpourri of Prose Pivots Precipitously Protracted, so let me simply add that it’s my Profound honor to meet you and you may call me “PP”
