FUTO is an organization dedicated to developing, both through in-house engineering and investment, technologies that frustrate centralization and industry consolidation. Through a combination of in-house engineering projects, targeted investments, generous grants, and multi-media public education efforts, we will free technology from the control of the few and recreate the spirit of freedom, innovation, and self-reliance that underpinned the American tech industry only a few decades ago. Our principles are here: https://futo.org/about/what-is-futo/
FUTO is hiring for two roles on our new FUTO Store project.
Software Engineer - FUTO Store Android Front-end - In this role you will be responsible for the front-end development of the FUTO App Store. This means: Displaying available apps and their metadata, basic search functionality, integration with FUTO Pay and integration with Polycentric for user reviews and developer updates. https://futo.org/jobs/store-frontend/
Software Engineer - FUTO Store Back-end - In this role you will be responsible for the back-end development of the FUTO Store in Rust. This means: Managing the storage life cycle of APKs, database management, integration with FUTO Pay, and analytics/reporting. https://futo.org/jobs/store-backend/
We are about to package a few of our pieces of software across several repositories. Not sure what issue you think might come up with that? If we are not allowed because of some restriction you can just manually add our repos to your /etc/apt/sources.list which is perfectly normal.
> A license is allowed if Fedora determines that the license is a free software / open source license. At a high level, the inquiry involves determining whether the license provides software freedom, and (equivalently) making sure that the license does not place burdens on users' exercise of its permissions that are inconsistent with evolving community norms and traditions around what is acceptable in a free software / open source license.
The BUSL is on their list of not allowed licenses[2], so I find it highly unlikely your similar "non-commercial use only" license will be permitted.
