This is giving me Fed vibes

i can assure you this isnt a fed op lmao. idk how i can convince you maybe check out the github and check out the devs? some devs are from other big projects like movie-web ect that got taken down.

plus downloads arent hidden behind registration, and we are addnig accounts in the future but its going to be mullvad style - a 12 digit unique identifier so privacy wise theres nothing tying you to the downloads except your ip, which we also dont save so you are fine

Looks cool. I will take a look when the backend is open sourced for sure. Prep for some tough times legally if you continue to use those centralized social platforms.

What about github? With all the more open git alternatives, why pick the code management tool hosted and controlled by Microsoft for open source / piracy?
