Truth Social should publish its source code. Gab has published its code ever since it switched to being based on Mastodon. There is no justification for Truth Social to continue violating Mastodon's AGPLv3 license.

- aaron695 5y ago> There is no justification for Truth Social to continue violating Mastodon's AGPLv3 license. What proof do you have of this? Personally the fact hackers have become copyright police ready to jump on people any chance they can get is quite embarrassing, but how have they broken the licence anyway?
- TheFreim 5y agoLast updated 7 months ago? There is no way they've gone that long without updating anything in their codebase, does this imply that they are no longer following the license (or does the license allow delays of this sort)? Also I seem to recall in the past being able to access their codebase but it was just a normal repo with recent commits (I can't remember how long ago this was, I believe it was shortly before/after they got hacked).
- commoner 5y agoIf Gab really has updated its production code since then, then that's a license violation and they should update their repo. But, I don't know if this is the case. Yes, it's disappointing that they switched from having all files tracked in version control to this password-protected archive. However, it is good that they released the code and Truth Social should try to meet or preferably surpass the standard that Gab is setting.
