Why can't they be a website than an app for Dekstop?
Also understood that they're not open-source but are they privacy-respecting?
Edit: Went through their privacy policy and seems they're privacy-focused. I will be trying their app now.
Yeah if you know who's behind Futo (Louis Rossman) you will know he fights very hard for better privacy across the board among other things that are better for us consumers.
Edit: Futo being the company behind this app and other privacy respective apps.
when it comes to right to repair he's amazing. that being said, however, he hasn't had much positive to say about the SteamDeck which is leagues ahead of something like the Nintendo switch in terms of user freedoms and customizability.
Granted that's like one take I disagree with compared to ALL he's done but I'm still surprised he hasn't made a followup about how much good it's done for Linux in general considering he's been using Linux since it was in a physical box lol
