suddenly OP showed up in the thread. Here are questions for you
1) why are people and podcasters so quick to advertise a non fully free non fully foss software?
2) why when we ask "where is bitcoinj-core", most people disappear and don't reply, like the interactions I've had so far on nostr and X?
3) Are you & others contributing anything by omitting this important fact? Maybe shedding light on it would invite more java devs to rebuild it, but this fact was hidden and censored, what would be the reason?

My contribution is that I CHECKED the code, which actually I WAS checking already, I was studying samourai's code for my own personal projects and decentralized knowledge makes it more resiliant, which then a month ago I noticed a missing piece, then this is released and it seems I am the ONLY person to notice... where are those devs that you mention? I see zero efforts to make a full source available, but 100% effort to release it as is, and for the podcast crew to advertise it as soon as possible.

What we need is a movement that is pro-privacy and PRO-FOSS at all costs, no exceptions. Samourai has been working on bitcoin since 2011 or something, I started working on this for 2 years max. They had plenty of time to distribute copies of codebases, write in many different languages, write docs for new devs, not just focus on java lmao, but they don't have the FOSS spirit. I could also get into the "where is OXT?" or "where is KYCP?" discussion. But I don't have time to rebuild someone else's work for free from scratch, unless you pay me for it I already have a job and family to take care of, plus interesting how it's "oh you noticed? well rebuild it yourself!" why not set the same standards for whoever built the new fork and force them to release APKs only after THE FULL SOURCE is available, since they are already working on it?

I myself risk my life and my family's because I live in a dictatorship, they banned X, telegram and Rumble so far for supporting free speech. And this is why to me it is FOSS or nothing. If I had the complete source code that made samourai, I would've reimplemented the wallet and whirlpool and made it work without a centralized coordinator that could be shut down and seized, even while living in a poverty state with zero funding/donations.
