I want to support the guy, but damn does he like to overpromise and underdeliver...

We've been hearing about Loops being open sourced (which would imply the ability to be federated) for months already. Just publish the thing and let the community help, @dansup@mastodon.social !

One more reason to be asking for help from the community and to be doing everything in the open.

He doesn't need to know everything. No one is expecting him to deliver flawless software. But I'd have place more trust on someone that works in the open than someone who keeps saying "next week!" out of fear of being judged by the initial quality of their software.
