Loops became Open Source!
-
He open sourced the "code". If you actually look in detail, there's no actual working code.
He also disabled issues on GitHub, so there's no way to report bugs (and thus discuss his code).
While he could be getting offers, everything about it just feels like a scam.

Pardon my ignorance, I am new to the fediverse and have no idea what I’m doing.
But, when I signed up for loops on the website, I had to wait 3 days for them to send me a link to download a test-flight app for loops. I cannot recall if TestFlight is standard on iPhone or if I downloaded it previously.Test flight is opt in if I remember correctly and allows you to download beta versions of apps. So I would assume you signed up or activated it or whatever for an app.

it might be useless gossip but for some reason a lot of fedi has various problems with this guy. for various reasons… he just has like … off vibes?
i guess similar to how lemmy devs are marxist lenninists—at least making it open source means projects can be forked if the founders go off the deep end.

not just "off vibes", he posts a bunch of shit that people call him out on, and then deletes it

Could you elaborate? I'm not a developer but the repo does appear to be populated. Someone in the Mastodon replies said he might have forgotten to push some commits, are y'all alluding to the same thing?
I don't have the requisite competency to see what you're saying so I'd love more info on what you mean and why you think that

Not even a surprise open sourcing...
Nvidia did it better

You should haggle a bit mate. I think a few things are on the table here.

The repo is just full of configuration files and no actual working code. The backend code does not exist. The guy in mastodon thinks that dan forgot to upload his code to the github repo.

Would it be more or less if Adam wasn't eating your ass?
-
It wasn't. He had previously said that he would open source it after it had become more stable, but there was a lot of skepticism that he would follow through.
what an asshole
-
Now he can tell the next guy that $20k isnt enough, because he was already offered it by AdamEatsAss last year

Can't wait to see AdamEatsAss's changes to bluesky, he will take the company down the right path

Yeah this is just vaporware at this point.

Sweet... this is the first time I've ever actually used vaporware. Typically I never get a chance, but it's impressive that Dan was able to release vaporware.

Vaporware can also include prototype spaghetti code releases.

Nice, and now we're just changing definitions of words to match what we think they should mean. That's so woke.

He was working on it but it wasn't completed until now. I'm unsure why it wasn't open sourced from the start but either way, it's open sourced now.
