Microsoft has released their new Terminal application to GitHub, marketing it as another demonstration of their commitment to "open source". While the project is MIT licensed, did you know it is inextricably linked and dependent upon numerous proprietary SDK tools, headers, and the Visual C++ ATL.

Do not be fooled, see through the mirage of feigned support to undermine and sabotage the original ethics of the free software movement!

Any user-facing #FreeCode software project needs to aim to have a minimum of three language options; #English, #Spanish, and #Mandarin #Chinese. The vast majority of the world's people have at least a basic understanding of at least one of these trade languages. Any infrastructure the #SoftwareFreedom movement can set up to support Mandarin translations would help make free code software accessible to millions more people.
