Oh it's open source? where are the serverside repositories then
The title specifies that it's the apps that are open source.
If it is running on the server you have no way of verifying the code or the execution environment.
Theoretically you should now be able to self host proton
TC says otherwise
And I call there bluff
Its not a bluff, its cryptography lol
Except you don't control the hardware. If the execution environment is untrusted everything goes out the window
Thats literally what TC solves
Not really as you still need trust
