You could tell this sort of insinuation to anyone. Including you.

Argument should be technical.

[teiferer]

Insinuation? As a sw dev they don't have any agency over whether or by whom they get acquired. Their decision will be whether to leave if it's changing to the worse, and that's very much understandable (and arguably the ethical thing to do).

[faust201]

Do you mean like IBM takeover of RedHat?

[seanhunter]

That's a perfectly valid objection to this proposal. You only have to look at what happened to Hashicorp to see the risk.

[faust201]

How can anyone promise that? Will you promise to your current employer that you will never leave the job?

Technical arguments pave the road to hell.

Well he is called faust…

Yes. You correctly stated the important point.

Yes. Aleksa made no technical argument.
