I might just be paranoid but is wefwef.app safe? Any of you guys use it?
I’m primarly curious how much of wefwef is proxied versus directly pulled from instance.
When you install wefwef on your phone, aren’t you essentially hosting it since it is a standalone application running on your phone?
As far as I understand even with the web app installed currently everything has to be proxied because CORS but that will hopefully change in the future. Reference: https://github.com/aeharding/wefwef/releases
When you install the wefwef app on your phone, it functions as a standalone application that runs on your device. However, it still relies on the wefwef.app for updates and maintenance. The developer who created the app manages this server to ensure that the app remains up to date and properly maintained.
Personally, I trust the author and use the wefwef.app instead of self-hosting it myself.
