With our huge thanks to @NGIZero Entrust program and to @nlnet: those funds allowed us to dip into mobile dev, a new territory for us.

At Framasoft, we aim to keep those talents within our team. We are raising funds for our 2025 budget, and you can help here : support.framasoft.org

@peertube @NGIZero @nlnet congratulations ! I'm really impressed by the app's nightly edition. Even if there's much more work to do, I'm sure you'll improve the app all along 2025. I hope you'll get plenty of donations.

@peertube @NGIZero @nlnet I've made a live and tested the app. I'm amazed by the outcome. I've been able to follow the stream without any cuts.

It's really a pitty that funds were used for a native and proprietary mobile app. I'd ratehr have seen it go into PeerTube development. Hence, considering skipping my donation this year.

The app is a Libre Software. Under GPLv3 licence.

@Renard @peertube @NGIZero @nlnet Yes, the proprietary PeerTube app is licensed under GPL-3, that is correct.

@trya2l @peertube @NGIZero @nlnet Yep, exactly that!

(Or are you looking for a definition of "proprietary"?)

"Proprietary" here means that it can only be used with the PeerTube API, which is non-standard. In contrast to improving a general-purpose video app like NewPipe and/or working on standards-conformant ActivityPub client support.

@nik @peertube @NGIZero @nlnet Yeah, I think I'd like yours because "my" definition of "proprietary" doesn't allow me to understand you... What exactly is proprietary in this piece of software ? At least try to explain your point

@nik @peertube @NGIZero @nlnet Okay, thanks for taking the time to elaborate. This indeed seems harmful, I may look further into it to see if they have pointed a rational for this decision.

@peertube @NGIZero @nlnet I just sent a small donation. Because I prefer community-run, free open-source tools like #Peertube to corporate ones like #youtube #foss
