    Industry standard is generally an open standard. Proprietary is what you and meme/op are thinking.

      No, sorry, you’re just wrong. An “industry standard” can be anything that’s normal in an industry, e.g. a particular tool. Photoshop for example is an industry standard, but it’s not an open standard in any way.

        What it means is context driven. I didn’t see this was an “industry standard” vs an alternative/gimp.

          Okay, but we’re in the context of “tools being industry standards”, as GP mentioned KeyCloak. That’s not a standard/specification, it’s a tool.

          And of course Photoshop is an industry standard.
