Something wrong?

Wrong devices, a wrong description, or it isn't really open source? A mod reviews every suggestion.

What we couldn't confirm3
  • Whether the desktop app and mobile app are under the same MIT license as the main repository (the mobile app is described only as open source).
  • Whether the hosted instance has terms or features beyond the open-source project.
  • Whether the README's Telemetry section changes anything about open status (it describes opt-out telemetry; no license impact stated).
