This article could be summed up with “many projects are engaging in open source/free software cosplay”.

There are lots of projects that claim to be open source, and either are lying/don’t have free software licenses (CapRover, for example), or don’t work like an open source project is expected to (VS Code, Chromium), denying patches being integrated even if they fit project standards and provide benefit to users.
