I have a lot in common with the lead developer of the #ZeroPhone. Our commitment to #OpenSource #Hardware, long term support, desire for sustainability, supporting upstream projects, and tolerating imperfect openness in some components for now until more options are available later.
However, I very much disagree with this: https://zerophone.github.io/newsletter/ZeroPhone-Weekly-No.-1419/
I hope it was an April fools day joke. It was written in 2019 and was the last newsletter ever written, so joke or not, it may have killed the project.
The reason I disagree with the "put it in the cloud" approach is that it violates the goal of self-sufficiency, and robustness in terms of if the project leader leaves the project (for any reason).
I also value local-first computation. Technology should work without the internet. Period. It can work better with the internet, and have extra features, but it should be a requirement for basic functionality.
