‘Open source’ misses the point of libre software. Throwing away control over our own computing never helps.
Not very peer-to-peer when I need to open your website everytime or run a web server on my phone.We already have Syncthing.Normal people don’t want to pay for a service or run a server.~~To spread privacy, we need more apps to replace them with Syncthing. Like an app for this: https://lemmy.world/post/28313324~~
This fails to include a libre software license text file, like AGPL. We do not control it, anti-libre software. Very dangerous.
They target an app we already control, Syncthing, to replace it with an app/service only they control.
With buzzwords, technology, and ‘open source’, we are distracted and derailed away from this.
Attacks like this will quickly get your friends leaving private apps, which you worked so hard to recommend, when you fail to show them how to check for software freedom.
Discord fails to include a libre software license text file. We do not control it, anti-libre software.
