Maybe but this isn't free and open source software...
It is free. The developer is here. Maybe you should stop being a curmudgeon about everything.
Purity testing is idiotic.
Free as free beer not as freedom
Ffs. People like you are absolutely exhausting.
There is no reason that a fediverse client has to be free or open source. It just so happens that connect is excellent and is free.
I didn't say that it has to. It's my choice to choose an option that respect my freedom. I have no issue with Arctic and it being proprietary. I simply use it to test the client and not interact extensively with the fediverse. One of the reason I like the Fediverse it's because it's Free Software as in Freedom, and that's the same reason why I like Free and Open Source Clients for the Fediverse. I use proprietary software in my life and I can live with that.
Then why did you open your big mouth? No one fucking cares.
