astro-float VS threema-android

I am working on https://github.com/stencillogic/astro-float

Since my last post announcing astro-float on Reddit it had several major updates:

I am working on astro-float. My goal is to write a procedural macro which, roughly speaking, given a precision, a rounding mode, and a math expression computes the correctly rounded result of that expression with desired precision.

Experience: I've been learning and writing Rust for more than 3 years. I have several crates published, my most prominent project so far is astro-float.

I'd like to present a library that implements arbitrary precision floating point numbers: https://github.com/stencillogic/astro-float

Such apps exist. Essentially they require a license key before accesing. For example, Cryptomator (github) and Threema (github) .

The source code can be found here: https://github.com/threema-ch/threema-android. Just clone it and start adding your language, then submit a PR.

If you choose "maximum quality" in the settings and the other user choses "balanced" and is on a metered data plan, then you will both get the "low" quality profile. Additionally, if a call is being relayed over Threema servers, because a direct connection cannot be established, then the max profile is also excluded. Only if both users choose "maximum quality" in the settings, and if the call takes place over a direct connection, then that profile will actually be used. That logic can be found here: https://github.com/threema-ch/threema-android/blob/c3eb92a10166a9912056cfcd8f81f4df9c07f835/app/src/main/java/ch/threema/app/voip/util/VoipVideoParams.java#L186-L231

It's one commit per version. Contributions go to a private email instead of a public mailing list. All development happens in private and pushed to the public in a version bump with no changelog.

So yeah it has an AGPL License (which is good) and meets the minimum of FOSS requirements, but it gives of the feeling that they're following the letter, but not the spirit of FOSS.

I would definitely not use it or push any friend to use it.
