For this, we all need "not locked" devices. If phones all have a locked bootloader, then just one order for google or apple and they block any "bad app". People are building, but if there will be no hardware to run this software on, what then?

I get why decentralized feels like the only move, but building things people actually want to use is harder than the tech part—seen it stall out with local projects here. what's your timeline looking like, like are we talking 5 years or permanent work?
