On the other side there's people that genuinely use that as an excuse and say "they'll open source after they cleaned up the code". Why they couldn't clean it up in the clear is beyond me, no one will shame you for your code, just sharing it under a free license is admirable in and of itself
Plenty of people will
Will what? I'm confused
They will shame you, for your messy code. People suck sometimes.
That's awful, I guess I should consider myself lucky that nobody looks at my repositories then. But still, if someone does they're the assholes, you shouldn't feel bad about it, you should actually tell them to fix it themselves if they're so good
Those people are assholes and aren't worth your consideration.
