I’m aware NVK has referred to the foundation device as a clone of the coldcard, but he is not a FOSS maximalist. It’s weird seeing FOSS maximalists use those terms when they are contradictory to the FOSS ethos that’s all.

Yes, I didn’t click all the links that’s why I said “I didn’t know about the bounty stuff”, as in for all I know it’s true, but I don’t have time to click all those links and go down that rabbit hole. I didn’t make a comment denying the validity of those accusations.

I tagged NVK in a separate paragraph in case I was misrepresenting his stance on QR and why they are just now enabling it on their hardware. I didn’t tag him so he could defend your accusations. For all I know he could care less and would tell you to cry harder.

Seems like you didn’t understand what I said or meant at all, but all good.

It's not contradictory, it's the truth.

Is it not a clone of the design?

I have no issue with people using FOSS code for their projects.

I have an issue with people who muddy the waters & pretend they produce innovation when they are just ripping others, then accusing them of the act of "cloning".

I will use the words produced by NVK without any omission, & respond in kind.

I'll find the receipts of his real time FUD campaigns & post them here for you to read.

I advise you to read those links as a user.

Happy hodling.
