I don't get how some people can hate on free software, what would they gain from open-source apps being discontinued.

Bringing the very best Linux news to your mobile device, WebUpd8 scours the Web for anything of interest relating to Linux-based operating systems , and compiles it into one, easy-to-use application for your convenience... Which works beautifully! Whether you're new to Linux-based operating systems or a seasoned veteran, this application is well worth the installation!
