- squarefoot 2y agoThey have a GH repository, but it is not clear to me if it contains everything. https://github.com/clostra/newnode https://github.com/clostra/newnode
- cl3misch 2y agoWhy the snark? Even if it disappeared, that's better than never existing (helping people) at all.
- guntars 2y agoIt seems to me like they didn’t learn anything. You can’t have a business whose product is meant to overcome state censorship, unless, perhaps, you work for another government. It can work as an open source project though as there’s no legal entity to coerce, just a diffuse and ever changing group of contributors. Plus of course the trust question. As a closed source project, they could be paid or forced to add a backdoor. It’s possible that they didn’t help anyone at all.
