Watched Louis Rossman today, and he's part of the team behind a new app for watching online video content - not just youtube, but nebula, peertube, twitch and more.

adblock already integrated, works amazingly with a quick test on my end - it's an app in the Lemmy spirit

(it's got a paid model similar to winrar, you don't have to pay - but they do want you to - opensource and all)

It isn't about the list of approved licenses, it's about the criteria for being added to the list. New licenses regularly meet the definition. This license clearly does not.

oh cool, if Edward Snowden did it I guess software freedom isn't important anymore 🙄

But seriously, did he? which one? I'm not familiar with that.

But even if he did release something under one, I would be extremely surprised if he called a non-free license "open source" as FUTO is doing here.
