Oddbean new post about login | logout frankly dont know about backends codebases. Its super important to open source all and would be great to have responses about that. Still, backend involves trust in who runs it and offer the services, opening the source doesnt make much difference in reducing the trust that users need to put as theres no way to audit the computation happening in the backed.
opening the backend source, means we can keep primal honest by running our own.. if we cant, thats not very nostr like. if clients all use a primal cache cause its so cool and fast and has all these features, but its closed source, then we didnt accomplish the mission to decentralize. maybe the 3 months of no commits just means there arent any new commits because backend is the same as 1.0. i would highly doubt it. which is why i asked.
agree with you
