Holepunch isn’t closed source. The only app that is closed source is Keet and it’s basically just a UI stuck on top of Pear Runtime which they fully released in February. All the Hypercore and Pear Runtime stuff is open and available to explore on GitHub.
It says it's open source but it's built on hole punch which is closed source. Seems pretty sus to me

Or so they say (Keet just being a Ui slapped on top the Foss 🍐 runtime)...
I'd rather not trust, but verify.
And I could totally accept it (although not use it), it they would constantly make this gaslight claim "Look, it's open source" while the app clearly isn't
That being said: Have not heard about Holesail yet, and can't find anything online.
Are there some notes somewhere?
How has anyone been gaslit? They’ve never made a claim that Keet is open source. They have explained that Pear Runtime and the protocol stack is open source, which it is. And they have given their reason for Keet not being FOSS yet while also sharing when they will release it. If you don’t want to use Keet because that app isn’t fully open yet then of course, simply don’t. But nothing about the situation or what they’ve explained is “gaslighting.”
Don't make me look up the tweets, Guy...
