a super cool map that shows waterflows and rivers all around the world. When I looked closely, I could see via the browser extension privacy badger (https://privacybadger.org/) that there is a tracker (analytics.ahrefs.com) on the website which is unnecessary I think. Also ublock origin (https://ublockorigin.com/) blocked gc.zgo.at which seems to be a open source web analytics platform (https://pkg.go.dev/zgo.at/goatcounter/v2#section-readme). Maybe 3/5 blocks because of that.

Important difference: there are OpenWrt products that are for sale, like the “OpenWrt One MediaTek MT7981B” for 89$ on Aliexpress (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007795779282.html) and there’s also merch for example: https://openwrt.org/merchandise – these things cost money and are for sure not trade-free. However, the software itself and the documentation is trade-free – made by the community.

basically a wrapper for many open-source tools to have a all-in-one “solution”.

“Open source. No ads. No nonsense.” – that’s a pretty clear commitment against trade, which is why the project deserves 5/5 blocks!

Here it’s important to differentiate and it’s not so easy to label Zulip as fully trade-free. 1. https://zulip.com/ is NOT trade-free. There are plans that one can subscribe to in the “cloud”: https://zulip.com/plans/#cloud and even in self-hosted version: https://zulip.com/plans/#self-hosted 2. However, there is a “free-community-plan” for certain groups of people (in education or non-profit for example): https://zulip.com/help/self-hosted-billing#free-community-plan
This is why one might label Zulip as trade-free for “Open-source projects, Research in an academic setting, such as research groups, cross-institutional collaborations, etc., Organizations operated by individual educators, such as a professor teaching one or more classes, Non-profits with no paid staff or Communities and personal organizations”. Maybe 3 block might be appropriate for that?
