I'd say that Fedi and Keet should go open source, but Fountain is just a podcast app and open sourcing their app to make sure they're not...uh...sending me subliminal messages?? isn't really a priority for me. It would be welcomed, but I don't consider Fountain "freedom technology".
Discussion
Yeah agree.
My main issue is internet connectivity. It's currently very difficult to know if two proprietary Android apps are sending messages to each other and leaking private information. There is no app isolation at this level even in GrapheneOS.
Does Fountain allow nostr log in? If so, does it ask for an nsec?
They do not. They only allow you to add your npub for a Nostr address I believe. nostr:npub1unmftuzmkpdjxyj4en8r63cm34uuvjn9hnxqz3nz6fls7l5jzzfqtvd0j2 did mention a long while ago about tighter integrations.
Fountain still has data on users just like Spotify.
Agreed. Not every app needs to be, or is going to be, freedom tech. That's OK.
