The power of a centralized manner lies in the concentration of control, leads to efficiency in management but potentially at the cost of flexibility or individual autonomy.
Decentralization is the key, and I can see it's coming. Fediverse platforms like Lemmy, Mastodon, and Misskey have already appeared. It won't be long before we see fully decentralized platforms like WireMin and Damus gain popularity. Their only weakness is that people have 100% ownership, so spam and sensitive content could be hard to control.
Is it just me or is WireMin closed source?
In addition, the app contains Google tracker (This is what App Manager shows).
It’s not the first time I’ve seen this app recommended in Lemmy and I don’t understand why.
I think there are a lot of similar apps in Google Play.
Upd: I checked Damus. Contains 24 trackers. 😂
Yeah, they haven't published the source code yet. I asked the WireMin team, and it seems they are a small team still finalizing the code. What is the App Manager called tho?

When I read that someone is planning to open their code, I remember the news about the releases of the Sailfish operating system: "The operating system is partially open source, but the layer for running Android apps is proprietary. However, the code of this layer was planned to be made open in 2017"
Planning doesn't mean doing.
