the article is confusing. i don't know if I'm missing something or its poorly written.

but if understand I dont agree. There's providing mods that run on top if a the game, and there's reuploading altered versions of someone's software. Both are "modified" but are very different things.

Your branch analogy also doesn't seem applicable. i couldn't find any open source community for the mod and the patreon implies its closed source. so if the author doesn't want forks, tough luck.
