Right. _they_ were not meant to be Wiki.js, but ANY open source project. And was a meant to indicate the same subject as _any_ in this reply:

> I don't think _any_ of the mainstream open-source licenses allow you to retroactively revoke or change the license.

My reply is in this context, not in the parent's parent which you mean as _relevant_ context. If I wanted to include the parent context the reply would be more specific. This was a direct reply to a specific message. This is a very normal way to reply on the internet, HN is not special.

Try rewriting history if you want, but the thread goes off-topic as soon as mekster suggests the project change the license, and your reply there only feeds into it. And it still doesn't explain how you can claim that your comment was meant to "agree" with gary-kim's.

> My reply is in this context, not in the parent's parent

The parent's parent at that point is... your comment, "For future versions, not past versions," which was off-topic.

> This is a very normal way to reply on the internet

Indeed, it's common for people to lose the plot in the comments section and then get defensive (and smug) while being wrong, e.g.:

When have I suggested the project change the license??? I only said it is possible.
