What devices? People are free to licence their apps however they wish. There's four entirely separate firmwares for my companion that vary from fully open to fully closed and paid

I believe the T-deck firmware is proprietary.

And I realise that people can license their apps however they want, I'm just saying the main apps endorsed by the project are proprietary.

I think it's problematic when communities give support and endorsement for proprietary firmware and apps as official solutions. The fact that you had trouble finding open source firmware because most of the crap they promote is proprietary is literally the problem.

There's several proprietary tdeck firmwares endorsed by the project like meshos and ripple. Like all the other companions there's open source firmware available and you're free to work on your own too

Ah I didn't knownthere was open source firmware for it as well
