The whole point of Tusky being free software is that it doesn’t matter if the developers implemented a restriction/feature you don’t like. Take the software, remove that restriction (you can do so, because it’s free!) and go your merry way.

There are a lot of folks both in this thread and on this network who are wildly misunderstanding FOSS and missing this point entirely... it's hilariously disingenuous for alexgleason here, despite an apparent zealot of software freedom, completely misunderstanding that you can just... fork the damn app and republish it without the blocking code, and that is enough to qualify for freedom 0...

Client-side blocks aren't really effective in the grand scheme of things given that, but good lord this is just stupid concern trolling on his part.
