How does that make sense? That has always been and will always be possible with any open source project. Should every other project go closed source too just because Russia can fork it and say "I made this"?

Yeah, that excuse makes perfect sense if you don't think about it.

It makes sense that the fact you are making a big deal of it while you didn’t get to say anything about apple macos since it was never open source in the first place.

MacOS and MenuetOS aren't equivalent, not even up to isomorphism.

Menuet is far from being a practical OS. It's a very interesting proof of concept/research project, but its usefulness evaporates almost completely without the source.

Closing down the source was likely an emotional, rather than a rational reaction. The author simply got pissed and didn't want this to happen again.
