@nebulon if I were you I'd edit the post with the wrong links to put the correct links back in, or just delete the comment (and perhaps block the user too).

And perhaps simply delete this thread, so we don't waste our time to finally getting nowhere loll

Are you actually a spammer?

being open source is not a requirement

Confirmed on their Contributing page in GitHub where it states "Open Source / Free Software is preferred but not required."

I think Cloudron meets at least 3 (the bottom ones) of the 5 "main" software criteria listed on their page:

  • Easy to use. Could your mother use that tool or service? Usability is most important.
  • Cross-platform / Accessible.
  • Privacy respecting.
  • Open Source / Free Software is preferred but not required.
  • Prioritize Products without Vendor Lock-in (decentralized/self-hostable) or data interoperability.

There is a contradictory statement it seems though in their Software Criteria > Software category, where it then states "Must be Open Source Software", so not certain but I think it's at least worth a shot to try and list Cloudron on there. We can create a pull request for it. The worst that can happen is it be denied. 🤷

Correct.

If it's privacy respecting, then sure. We operate under source available model where all the code and development is public and open for inspection. I couldn't make out from looking at the site immediately if that is a requirement but it seems they have a few sponsors and none of them are open source atleast.

Looking at the recommended email providers it's clear that being open source is not a requirement:
