[ABOUT US] [PROJECTS] [SERVICES] [REPOS] [CONTACT] [TERMS OF SERVICE]
Who are you?
We are a organization focused on developing free, libre and open source (FLOSS) software under the GNU Affero General Public License 3 (or later). We are a one-person-team at the moment unfortunately.
What are you doing?
We are doing these things at the moment:
- hosting services such as a Forgejo instance and a Fediverse instance
- developing the CORE Framework, a unit testing framework, our own kernel and much more
Services
- sos!status (status page)
- sos!git (source control)
- sos!fly (federated social network)
- sos!piped (youtube frontend/alternative)
Repositories
- CORE Framework (simplifies Godot game/app development)
- Bessere Tests (dead simple unit testing system for Godot)
- StarOpenSource UI (UI elements for games/apps)
- server-kernel (StarOpenSource’s fast server-oriented kernel)

Terms of Service
Note: General terms always apply, regardless of which service you are using. Certain services however have their own rules alongside the general terms that you have to follow too.
Punishments
A punishment is usually either a warning or a account termination on all services hosted on StarOpenSource infrastructure.
If you think you got punished unfairly, write an email to appeals@staropensource.de with all relevant information.
Note: Spamming or abusing the appeal email address or evading a punishment will lead to you being unable to appeal ever again.
