    We also don’t live in a world where leftists can trust a project that isn’t open source to not just be a Fed honeypot. Not that it’s safe to use Lemmy to organize anything real, but at least I know they aren’t leaking my IP to atomwaffen or those Florida Nazis.

        yikes Lemmy does have a way to enable IP logging, right? At least IP addresses aren’t federated and our instance doesn’t log them. That’s some truly heinous stuff.

      That’s why I said that I understand how it’s important for auditing. You can publish the code and still protect it with copyright. I suppose someone could still steal it, but that’s a few more hoops to jump through.
