This is FUD

The libretro/retroarch devs are the problem and why the license was changed.

Open source != owned by everyone

Exactly my thoughts. The project is going to remain open source, but not free. I hate when people fail to recognize the difference between free software and open source software.

open source but not free

You mean source available then. Do not conflate these terms, please.

Oh my god, stop being a proscriptivist about this. Open source is not the same as free software. You're thinking of FLOSS.

Previous discussion.

Didn't realize you were the same user, I would've used different words so it didn't feel like I was trying to reopen an argument or something. My mistake, friend. ❤️ I mean that genuinely. I hope you don't view me as some thread hopping flame lord about this topic.

Edit: Wait, I wasn't replying to you lol. My point still applies though.
