dunno why i've never thought about this before, but are there open source iOS apps? is that even possible with apple's dev/distribution ecosystem?

similarly, are there OSS android apps? at a guess i would say that's easier, but maybe i'm wrong?

@pixelpaperyarn Open source iOS apps exist, but the distribution is tricky - most of them require you to compile them yourself in XCode and install on your device with your developer profile, meaning you either have to re-build/re-install every 7 days or pay $99/year to join the developer program to get a longer-lasting certificate. :expressionless:
@kzurawel that's exactly what i was thinking the barrier might be. so someone still needs to be the "product owner" in some way and probably makes passing it off to someone else difficult.
