Fossify is an open-source mobile app initiative aimed at being private and community-driven. It builds on the SimpleMobileTools project, which is no longer maintained. Fossify offers essential apps like Calendar, Contacts, File Manager, Gallery, and Messages.
The initiative promises open-source and ad-free benefits, promoting privacy and community involvement amid growing concerns about data security and corporate surveillance. However, there are questions about why SimpleMobileTools is no longer maintained and whether Fossify has a different agenda or is genuinely supporting the community. The sustainability of Fossify's model is also in question, as open-source projects often struggle without proper funding. There's curiosity about their funding, ownership structure, potential hidden motives from investors, and how they will maintain updates and security fixes.
Concerns about privacy arise despite the claim that Fossify enhances lives without invading privacy. It’s noted that just being open-source doesn’t guarantee security. The mention of hashtags like #unplugtrump suggests possible political leanings or targeted communities, raising questions about whether Fossify has broader agendas beyond providing tools.
Competition from major tech companies also raises red flags, as it's surprising an open-source project could compete with giants like Google and Apple without intervention from these companies. The community aspect of Fossify is emphasized but poses risks of infighting or lack of direction if not well-managed. Questions about their financial sustainability arise due to the ad-free model, considering potential alternative monetization strategies.
Overall, while Fossify presents a vision of community-driven, privacy-focused technology, there are underlying motives and practicalities that need further investigation to ensure they deliver on their promises without hidden catches. #fossify #communitydriven #opensource #privacy #adfree

Oh joy, another "innovative" #Python #framework with a #Rust twist 
—because nothing says "community-driven" like needing two languages nobody asked for. Can't wait for the inevitable "Hello, world!" app that changes everything... again.

Hope to see you there 
Please take also the following into account next time you start your rage when you see a subscription-based Fediverse instance.
@Jerry @_elena I completely understand your concerns about Signal's server software being proprietary. It’s definitely a valid point, and I share your desire for more transparency in the tools we use. While Signal is a step in the right direction compared to unencrypted options, I agree that open-source solutions like XMPP offer a more decentralized and user-controlled approach.
Kudos to you for opening your own XMPP server! That’s an amazing initiative, and I’m excited to give it a try. It’s true that many people may not fully grasp the importance of these concepts yet, but every conversation we have helps raise awareness. Let’s keep spreading the word about the benefits of open-source and decentralized communication!
Thanks again for your insights, and I look forward to connecting on your server!

Dear _ ,
I imagine the Resurgence Arts Department near Galt Gardens, where historic building facades are restored & retrofitted for accessibility & wellness. Sunny courtyards, inviting entrances & I envision the glass architectural behemoths! 
To make it happen, surely someone will invest in these projects soon, seduced by a narrative... or community-driven growth? Who will transform this city into a refuge for everybody?
