Separate FOSS from source-available software

[Wuzzy2]

The ✨ is currently defined as: “Free and open-source (or source available)”. I think this is problematic.

Source-available software is significantly different from free software and open source software. Because the latter still usually qualifies as proprietary software and thus comes with all or most of the legal restrictions attached to it (can't copy, share, modify). Those concepts represent entirely different philosophies. Basically, the problem here is that ✨ lumps both proprietary and free/open source software together, which makes this list much harder to use for FOSS nerds like me.

I suggest to split this category:

✨ = Free and open-source (or source available)

Into:

✨ = Free software / open-source software 📄 = Source-available software

And updating all softwares currently marked as ✨ accordingly.

(Note: I don't think free software and open-source software need to be split. Those two concepts are so similar it’s OK to put them in the same category.)

Example

Aseprite is currently “✨ (or 💵)”, which is very misleading. If I understand their website correctly, it is 100% a proprietary, paid-for software. There is a free trial version available, but you cannot save files with it, so it is basically just a demo. On purchase you get a copy of the source code but still must obey all copyright restriction.

My new classification of Aseprite would be: 💵 📄 ⌛
