Olvid, a secure messenger, is finally open-source! They said before the end of 2021, well it's really just before the end but it's there. They released the source for their Android and their IOS app.

such a dick move.

There is little incentive to publish open source code in a commercial setting comments like that validates it.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well, I'm poor and I'm already expecting that stuff for free, my poor friends are also not going to pay for that and therefore they will not switch to a private messenger therefore, so give me free real state or gtfo. I know people want to live from that and it must be great, but I live under capitalism and I don't have many choices.
