this is quite true, but also kind of the point of purism. they still deserve the credit, for being ABLE to re-use FOSS apps, which requires hw+sw effort and huge corporate sacrifices. in the end, all that matters is how good the app is on the phone they deliver. (evidence points to SFOS apps being WAY better at this point, in librem5s infancy, but that could change)

on a side note, as for rebranding FOSS apps and charging money for them and related services, this is FANTASTIC. if they are actually selling Librem One subscriptions, this is something to be celebrated. whenever anyone pays money for FOSS software, the world is a slightly better place
