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.
