Open source, closed source, and everything in between.
First and foremost is respecting the user privacy and freedom. This can be achieved with just about every software license under the sun.
Ideally open source is preferable, since the code could be audited, but any iteration of open source that allows you to view the code can achieve the same goal.
Closed source is the least desirable, but if no other options exist, and still respects the user's freedom and privacy, then it is an acceptable option until better one is available.

100%.
And if you haven't yet done so, try riding an older motorcycle. It gives a pure feeling that is hard to match. A long ride is physically and mentally exhausting.
I am with you but the problem is manufactures are offering fewer and fewer cars with stick shift. Gone are the days that just about every car had an option for a manual transmission.
This is the litmus test to determine if something is a shitcoin.
Of the digital assets, only Bitcoin has proven itself to be pure and not a shitcoin.
