What is unique about this server application is that it has no name, it has no logo, it has no brand identity, it has no website, and it is not even considered a project. All code responsible for sending nodeinfo data has been removed. It is absent from all websites that list [[Special:MyLanguage/What are Fediverse projects?|Fediverse projects]] and instances. Its core is in the public domain, and contributions by various developers are under different free licenses, making it so difficult to re-license a fork of the whole of it to non-free and proprietary that it can be considered impossible. | What is unique about this server application is that it has no name, it has no logo, it has no brand identity, it has no website, and it is not even considered a project.
