Facebook has their reasons to keep stuff as closed as possible, and they don’t claim to be opensource
But proton does, and it’s not about privacy or security, but about using banner of foss just for their own benefit, and don’t contribute what they claim to the foss community
Or don’t be that “don’t use any of my GPLv3 packages in your projects, because i don’t want”
Or, that guy who is “My project is free and open source, please don’t use for piracy, i don’t support piracy”
But yeah, complaining sucks, especially from somebody who doesn’t have his hands dirty, to somebody who does
And for free projects, don’t pay- don’t expect anything And even when paying, don’t expect much Just make stuff yourself, only making everything yourself you can be sure it will be good
If you’re ready to put on tinfoil, signal is not the way to go too
Phone number requirement is a big no-no in privacy community, plus signal wants to centralize more and more, when they could actually make it possible to selfhost signal
