Why is flathub saying Floorp is proprietary (lemdro.id)

I am very new to linux and all the open source stuff (my first post on lemmy actually) so I don't get how this stuff works but flathub is saying that floorp is proprietary. But after a quick google search it says that floorp is open source licensed under MPL 2.0

Tbh I still wouldn't trust them because they made some stuff proprietary for a while. It seems a bit sketchy.

Agree, it doesn't mean the project it bad but it still seems a bit weird. I've texted one of the Dev on Reddit to ask for some clarification about the whole thing, and maybe understand the reasons behind this choices.

Will update you here if they reply
