Not even remotely close. There are perfectly valid reasons for open vs. closed source software that have nothing to do with what you mentioned.
@the1whoplayz
Personally I leave most of my projects as closed source simply because there's no incentive in open sourcing it.
@ireshrie
Aside from monetary benefits, yes agree on this two points.
@BlackLightning0Games
Maybe because most people write software for a job and why would your company want to expose all the hard work they paid you to do to their competitors.
@Rustmilian
Every close source application depends on open source.
@Critmaw
3. It works, but I'm embarassed by the mess I hacked together
@novagaming7928
Nah more like: 1. I don't want to deal with criticism. 2. Biggest reason. Most developers don't know how to "open source".
@kaizer-777
People write closed source software because they want to make money.
@romangeneral23
I closed off my source code cause I don't want to live like a student for the rest of my life.
@d1namis
Name open source project that was not a rewrite of a commercial product. Open Source projects that is 100% ground breaking and necessary and come up before closed source - dosent exist. If you are an inventor - you have right to have profits and close source is a safest way, without open source gamble.
@aLfRemArShMeLlOw
I felt number two in my heart, damn! haha
@danielnykvist3221
My projects are closed because why would i give my hard work for free?
@amandahugenkiss
Or maybe they want to protect their intellectual property so they can keep making money on it?
@NielsSHansen
It doesn't sound like he actually knows what he is talking about.
@IgorStepanov
So that China does not steal it.

Why would my company that i own a portion of go open sourse when we have invested millinons in to building aquiring new ip to build upon just to go open sourse and take said investment and allow others to use for their purposes? All without paying any of the fees/costs along the way? That's not how software dev works. Folks like this are silly youtubers acting like they know how business actually works. Wasn't that hard to write. We have spent years working on stuff that does not yet exist, but it's simple, right?
