Fedi, Keet and Fountain are closed source, proprietary apps popular in the wider bitcoin ecosystem.

I personally feel uncomfortable installing them.

Can closed source apps be considered freedom tech?

It makes them less interoperable.

It's bad UX not to have verifiers.

It's bad marketing.

I don't mind anyone considering them anything. It's a losing strategy on an open protocol.

Agree!

I like the unverifiable/unreproduceable tag.
