       @karlggestd Well, currently it is closed code to the public, free for Astian collaborators and donors, but we hope to release the code completely, why? how can we help you?

       @astian Well, most of software I use is FOSS, so if I want to change the searching engine I'd like to go to a FOSS engine.

       @karlggestd We hope to release the code. I don't know if it's missing a lot or a little, but it is very valuable technology for the market, so I wouldn't be able to tell you whether it's missing a lot or a little, I suppose they will release critical components, but I can assure you that we respect the privacy of the users 100%.

       @astian No single closed product can assure anything.

       @karlggestd We can do it, because we do not have external investment, we do not depend on Big Tech, we do not sell our values, and we prefer to be transparent as we have expressed so far.

       @astian That is a promise, not a fact. FOSS is FOSS, no a little FOSS, some software FOSS some NON-FOSS... That is exactly what Google did at its start.
