WebRTC is a protocol, you can use it in both web apps and mobile apps.
If I remember well it was used as a trick from Facebook to leak personal data using the SDP.
Maybe you should have a look in Kotlin Multiplaform or Compose Multiplatform. However they rely on low-level layers, so you won’t be able to use SwiftUI maybe. Such cross-platform frameworks won’t be able to use directly system UI frameworks at least for iOS due to compilation limitations.
Title yes, but not tag.
You can delete a release. But you can’t change the associated tag and the attached artefacts.
Do you have some comparison documentation or benchmark to share comparing for example GitHub, GitLab, SourceHut and Codeberg?
I did not succeed in finding something comparing these forges about:
-CI/CD
- runners
- issues
- project management
- wiki
- releases management
- third-party tools
I am used to GirHub and GitLab but not Codebeg 🤔
For example:
- blog
If you use iOS Strongbox does support passkeys.
Yup, I meant Mozilla Public License
Yes indeed the Apple App Store is not compatible with GNU GPL v3 licence. Maybe MOL MPLcan suits your needs.
However plenty of open source apps under GPL v3 or AGPL v3 are available on the App Store and Apple does not care.
For example:
- https://github.com/Dimillian/IceCubesApp (Mastodon client)
- https://github.com/mlemgroup/mlem (Lemmy client)
- https://github.com/CovidTrackerFr/vitemadose-ios (COVID vaccines app)
We should support our fediverse admins and instances 💪
Support by sending money (for people who can), moderating content, submitting issues or helping the team and project ✌️
So abandon open source and move to “post open source” or ethical source might be a (sad) solution.
Did you have a look on ethical licenses?
For example, Coraline Ada Hemke who created the Contributor Covenant (famous code of conduct) started few years ago the Organisation for Ethical Source promoting “ethical” licenses defined by seven principles.
So in fact this third family of licenses is not open source nor free (as defined by OSI and FSF), nevertheless I feel some needs or willings in your side to go, let’s say, “one step further”.
In ethical licenses you can find for example 999 ICU, ACAB, Anti-Capitalist, Peer Production, Hippocratic or some BSD 3-Clause variants about nuclear topics.
You can also have a look on that slidedeck (in French, sorry).
Anticipate technical debt and follow what Google recommends. In few words, use Kotlin and Compose.
However you should really have a look on Google guidelines. In more worlds:
- by default Kotlin and Compose
- if some logic to share between other projects in other environments: Kotlin Multi Platform (KMP)
- if shared UI: Flutter (but Google reduced Flutter teams and KMP is being better and better, so we can suppose Flutter will join the Google Graveyard
I do not know if the solutions I listed below are open source ; however as an open source contributor I am used to work with some tools depending to choice of the projects:
- Crowdin
- Weblate
- Loco
About credits, I don’t think these tools exposes in some automated way the contributors identities. However, nothing prevents you to use these web UI tools to find who contributed and list people for example in your CONTRIBUTORS files. Another way could be to edit the automated commits these tools submit to your Git repos by adding credits to the translators (with for example Co-authored-by field).
Did you have a look on Cake Wallet app?
Open source under MIT license and available on F-Droid.
An app? Nope.
For notifications, there is open source alternatives to Google and Apple services but it is used in the apps side, not users side.
Have a look on microG and Open GApps to flash in your Android device; it might help you.
It seems the “radical” organisations like the FSF or the OES were right and more legitimate in the end.

Shai-Hulud round 2 on GitHub, massive leaks of data and propagation of stealer (about.gitlab.com)
“Upon execution, the malware downloads and runs TruffleHog to scan the local machine, stealing sensitive information such as NPM Tokens, AWS/GCP/Azure credentials, and environment variables.
