Going open-source? - JenN - 10-13-2019
The update frequency has been becoming slower and slower as Chromium development seems to only be getting faster, and a lot of reputable websites will not recommend Cent Browser due to the source not being posted up anywhere.
I understand that the developers' lives are busy and this is primarily a hobby project, but there often comes a point where interest in a project is lost. If that code was never shared, then it is lost. And there is still a lot of things Cent Browser does that no other Chromium fork has implemented nearly as well.
Is a source code release anywhere on the horizon?

Thanks for your suggestion.
This may be considered in the future.

My general opinion on "asking for source": if you can't be bothered to even run a network analyzer on it, you aren't going to read the source, so you don't need it, stop asking.

What do you think the biggest upside would be to go open source at this stage?
