Use of copyrighted code and violation of Apache-2.0 #3

Closed AnOpenSauceDev closed 6 months ago

AnOpenSauceDev commented 6 months ago

Hello there, just wanted to say that you're using copyrighted code within your project. In this file, there is an almost 1:1 copy of my own code from Methane/The Open Sauce Toast Killer, especially in earlier commits. I'm not angry or anything, and don't really care in this case (other implementations will use a similar method regardless), but you shouldn't copy blobs of code from other mods that are licensed! This is a sure-fire way to get your mod banned, as it directly violates Modrinth's content policy.

I'd recommend either leaving a notice about the use of copyrighted code, or to remove all offending versions with copyrighted code from other mod authors to prevent yourself running into potential legal troubles.

I apologize for this. The early version of this mod was merely a personal modification I used, and then, for the sake of convenience, I directly copied your code and forgot about its license after several commits.

No problem! I was more warning you about what could happen with other mod devs.
