I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Free Software is actually GNU/Free Software. GNU/Free Software is not an ecosystem unto itself, but rather one component of a fully functioning GNU ecosystem.

Is this some kind of annoying autoreply for everyone who mentions RMS? Sorry for saying the guy who started the Free Software Foundation started Free Software, and not Open Source. Open Source, which is different from and often hostile to Free Software, which is also often hostile to it.

Yes. I remember there was a 4chan Stallman interjector written in Perl. The script would reply to anyone talking about Linux with that text. I can't seem to find that code anymore but I found newer incarnations of the concept such as this Telegram interjector.
