Wtf. That pixelfed asshole was writing this shit as closed source before?
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.
Not sure you can trust him at this point.
Yeah man what an arsehole giving away free things, spending time making free things for everyone to use for free.
If he wants to keep his code private until he's ready to release it - that's somewhat up to him. The repo is a step in the right direction, just give it some time.
Looking through the git repo the ignore is lopping off quite a number of files too (server) however I'm not sure how much of those are things like secrets, cache, other scripts and so forth.
