Cool. For a long time I know that Keet source code itself was kept closed source, and only the underlying protocol was FOSS. Did they open source the Keet application code?
If you recommend any resources on how it works at a high level, I will certainly take a look.
I’ve just heard many smart ppl who I trust say something along the lines of “it sounds too good to be true”, but very happy to be wrong there
most of the application is the 'protocol' code which is open, but the ui and some other parts are not open yet
how it works is apparently not that complicated, you can browse a lot of the not yet open code in keet still, i know someone chatting on keet was exploring a beta version of a module called autobase before it was open sourced and worked out how it works, it is central to how the rooms run https://github.com/holepunchto/autobase
I have looked at the hole punch source code, it’s wayyy over my head. I’m just a humble data Python/SQL jockey
sounds too good to be true? which bit? lol, i have followed it since starting and it went thru many issues and a long period where it didnt scale well at all, but now that has been solved
i am not sure whats the point of doubting it as you can run keet or run pear and see it work pears.com
Where is the Keet application source code?
Doesn't exist
Holepunch (FOSS product of Bitfinex) is the source for how keet is built. Keet app is not FOSS.
Been using for years on & off and its still in the same state as when Guy & I found it years ago.
Again its cool but not what its made out to be
not true as the pear release had a massive open sourcing with it including most of the modules in keet
keet is in no way the same app it was 3, 6 or 18 months ago
it is what its made out to be and works very well
they have only open sourced part of it so far, its the vast majority say 95% but not all
Guy pops up out of nowhere and starts shilling keet. I have questions.
Yeah brand new npub. Very sketchy
Why do you have to shill or defend a product? The product should shill itself
😂😂😂
Trying to give benefit of doubt here… but yeah. Bitfinex + Keet crowd have done great things but by no means are their records clean lol
Yeah just stay away from keet if you want true FOSS.
Its cool & all but not FOSS and Bitfinex funded so there's that
most of keet is foss and they have said the rest will be
