    Here is a list of funded projects:

    If anybody wants to look depper into their claim of “proven success”.

    I browsed through it shallowly and didn’t find any project that I know/use, nor were the projects which I have randomly clicked on any interesting, when they had a working, usable result at all and not just designs or proof of concepts.

    I know it sounds cynical, but I honestly don’t mean it negatively. I just wanted to look a bit into it because their claims seemed without substance to me.

    But as I said I only looked at it very shallowly so far.

        DMA is Digital Markets Act. It requires free software to comply with quite serious requirements that are hard for most of the projects to comply with. If the project fails to comply with them, all the responsibility for using it legally goes to the company that uses it, making it a not very viable option. That’s what I know.
