| A new case where the "free as in speech, not free as in beer" clarification helps. |

| ▲ | tom_alexander 3 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | This is why I prefer "gratis" vs "libre" instead of "free as in speech" vs "free as in beer". gratis/libre are clear and succinct. As for an actual answer: parties, weddings. | | |
| ▲ | amlib 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | I'm sure this has already been answered somewhere in slashdot hundreds of years ago, but why not just go with "free as in freedom"? And perhaps use the word freedom insted of free when possible | | |
| ▲ | tom_alexander an hour ago | parent [-] | | Because freedom isn't free! But in all seriousness, "free as in freedom" seems fine to me but it is replacing the already unambiguous "free as in speech". You're still stuck with the sometimes-confusing "free as in beer" and they're still cumbersome compared to gratis/libre. |
