The repository for the previously private submodule is still called Floorp-private-components, though it's public.

https://blog.ablaze.one/4125/2024-03-11/ is a maintainer's official response to... Reddit, which crossposted me apparently. Hooray!

Normally I'd agree, but it doesn't actually seem to be advertised as open source.

That said, it's still IMO a terrible licence for code, the "share alike" doesn't require sharing source code at all, because it's not designed for code.

Yeah my bad...the title of the post said Open Source when I first saw it and I never clicked on the repo itself
