This is an incomplete view concerning open-source software, closed-source software, and the plugin ecosystem.
i think the toughest thing to understand is that it literally doesn't matter if your software is open source, closed source anymore - if it's closed source, people can and will RE: its internals, if it's a part of a broader suite, ppl will make it a plugin in their suite, if it's
The post states that whether software is open-source or closed-source “literally doesn't matter” anymore.
The post states that the internal workings of closed-source software may be studied by others.
The post states that if software belongs to a broader software suite, people may turn it into a plugin within that suite.
The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.
The author believes that the distinction between open-source and closed-source software is becoming less important, because the internals of closed-source software may also be studied and may be integrated into other software suites. The original text cuts off at “if it's.”
This reflects a personal view on software ecosystem integration and pluginization, but does not specify any particular software or case.
This can help newcomers understand that whether software can be used or integrated does not depend solely on whether its source code is publicly available.
