@jr We proudly base the Librem One software on Free and Open Source Software (such at K-9) -- and contribute back to the projects (and the community) along the way.

More information on how we work with upstream projects and give back here:

@purism but I don't understand why I should use your apps instead of the original ones

@jr
@purism
Really? Don't you get it? Certainly, Purism isn't targeting you with these services but a much larger audience. People like these app suites, they like a seamless experience and design. Rebranding is actually a smart move because they can offer a user experience that is close enough to the ones for Apple and Google... and this means an easier transition to their products.

@dyamon the design isn't really seamless if you look at the screenshots... and I also don't understand why they are targetting Android and iOS now and not the Purism phone... @purism

@jr
It makes moving easier. Same strategy worked when Free Software on Windows (browser, email, chat, office suite, etc) allowed people to shift to Linux and keep using the programs they were used to.
@dyamon @purism

@keverets so they want to implement the Android API into the OS? That will end in that no developer would make native Apps... @dyamon @purism

@jr
Yeah in this case I assume they will slowly transition to a more purism-ish interface, whatever this means. Also you want to hit Android and Apple because the transition goes like:
1) I have an Android phone
2) I try Purism One and like it
3) Time to change phone. I heard about Librem5... does it have all the apps I'm used to? Yes, it even comes with my fav social network, Librem Social!
4) I buy a Librem 5
