Does he have an ego? Definitely. But i'm not sure where you got russian operative from though. I'm not sure what russia would want to do with a buggy federated tiktok alternative/instagram app.

He also made pixelfed as i said, and it's open source so so far i haven't heard any backdoors inside it. Loops is a black box though.

It would seem I forgot to add the /s

In any case, I'm simply disappointed in his choices for not open sourcing software that would undoubtedly march on in terms of progress at light speed if fully FOSS.

I hope he learns to hone his ego, it's within and without. I just hope he comes to his senses and begins to work with devs who are desperate to get a peak at the closed source portions of his sofware. - By open sourcing any blackboxed software.

Ohhhh 🤦‍♂️Sorry. I agree, I hope he betters himself and make loops OSS. Currently he's pretty controversial but hopefully he turns around before it's too late.

Honestly same! I was ready to delete my Pixelfeed account after having read all thatlbut I have high hopes that a turnaround comes. Here's to hoping 🤞
