Is this abandoned? #121

Open FuccDucc opened 4 months ago

FuccDucc commented 4 months ago

Is this project abandoned? Hope not.

Since the original LSPosed repository was archived due to a maintainers drama/fight (Well, basically, someone offended @yujincheng08 and @vvb2060, it was also anime related.. really stupid reasons to archive a highly loved and active repo on which so many ppl relied) .. this 'mywalkb' mod was the only viable 'mainstream' alternative that still got actively maintained; it's now been 2 months ago since any activity from the maintainer in this repo.

Lots of users are/were super happy with it. Myself included.

Please tell us, @mywalkb .. Are you doing ok? What's going on, what are the plans for you with this project? Motivation, time? How can we help; do you want to recruit a second developer who's capable, known, to get write access and be another maintainer to help manage it all?

FuccDucc commented 4 months ago

If there is no answer, i will fall back to https://github.com/pumPCin/LSPosed_mod and i would advise others to do the same. It's basically mywalkb's LSPosed mod, with regular upstream syncs from here to there, and additional library updates/etc; i dont know if that guy @pumPCin is actually a coder or only able to push contributed and pre-made 3rd party library updates to keep things in a more updated shape than otherwise. But then what if there's no longer a source of regular "mainstream" updates ,,in case of platform-breaking changes required,, from a source like mywalkb's, or with the already lack of LSPosed main project that got archived?

He's also offer non "mod" fork of LSPosed original ( + same sort of updates ): https://github.com/pumPCin/LSPosed

But, i still favor MywalkB LSposed mod over either of them, so im concerned.

AFAIK original LSPosed is still under active developed, sadly not for the public tho. It is possible they will release something again one day, but it probably won't be opensource.

If it's being developed, then for who? Commercial/Telecom-Corporate parties and interests, as would be my first guess in that case?

Regardless, it would seem to break the LSPosed license (GPL), they can't even take ownership of other people's contributions like that and not give it back to opensource when modified "privately". That would be wrong, arrogant, and illegal by copyright laws.

Interested.. where did you read or hear it? Are we're having a plot twist here, like the real reason of LSPosed's "archived repo shutdown" wasn't actually hate, drama, and anime, but money somehow with commercial parties interests? Or whoever's still has the right to use it now's interests? What kind of interests though. Maybe we are about to find a scandal, lol. The whole situation was striking me as weird, very odd, with lack of communication from LSPosed devs, from the get-go. The Android dev community also censored discussions about it, certain people don't want us to discuss or think about it at all. Why? @DJLeleX

FuccDucc commented 4 months ago

Well, imagine that the type of corporate interests is that Google-Android "Core Security" Team is paying off these opensource devs who work on framework-breaking project's like LSPosed, motivating them to stop working on it? Then, imagine the original LSPosed devs are now still coding on it, to help Google migitate everything that a future dev of this kind of project could come up with to bypass? (Continuing like nothing happened, for simulation, in return working to break any Google's patches to counter it, for testing)

Money, money, legal threats? Who knows.

My theory goes far, i know, it would go even further to imply mywalkb was now also paid off by Google, and so would possibly be any dev that starts to work on a 'mainstream' LSPosed fork, lol. But it's all not very implausible to go this direction, because topjohnwu (Magisk author) also landed a big job at Google as platform security engineer and sort of sold his soul to fight the exact type of thing he's building. Conflicts of interest, hmm, all very interesting how Google is in the middle of all of this, right?

DJLeleX commented 4 months ago

I see your point. I just wanna say this is your "idea", and I dont take part in it.

I don't believe any (conspiracy) theory, unless they have unconfutable proof.

Anyway I guess this is not the place to discuss this argument, but thanks for sharing your opinion.

latest nightlies are from 2024-05-25, and mywalkb's latest activity here was June 6th.

The forks by pumPCin:

bocchi810 commented 4 months ago

But in reality, some game cheaters blame the maintainers for their own problems.

DealsBeam commented 4 months ago

I hope dev picks up

LeeBinder commented 4 months ago

Thanks @bocchi810 Did you base LSPosedN solely on the latest LSPosed_mod source here from mywalkb?

bocchi810 commented 4 months ago

I tell a bad news for everyone The LSPosed‘s code is very butt for me, i deleted the organization because I don't want to maintain a code that will have bugs when change dependencies version sorry

bocchi810 commented 4 months ago

If you want a newest version,you can join the LSPosed internal group This is a joke

DealsBeam commented 4 months ago

Welp, now what?

bocchi810 commented 4 months ago

Welp, now what?

怎么办（ban）?凉拌（ban）炒鸡蛋 now what？Cold scrambled eggs

MiRinChan commented 4 months ago

every dev have their own business, if it haven't any problem, no update needed.

aayushrautela commented 4 months ago

None of the lsposed mod work on Android 15 beta 4.

JingMatrix commented 4 months ago

For Android 15 beta 4, please use my fork: https://github.com/JingMatrix/LSPosed Screenshot_20240723-180107

I have update my Pixel 6 to Android 15 beta 4 this morning, and fixed the corresponding issues of LSPosed to support it. Also, I welcome developer to contribute to my fork.

aayushrautela commented 4 months ago

That's awesome, we really need some active devs working on lsposed. It would be nice to have 'Issues' section to report issues.

Why though? Lsposed_mod works fine on beta 4. Your branch uses older version.

Nope, it won't work perfectly. It may fail to bypass hidden apis due to a recent change in AOSP, which is detailed in the issue: https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPlant/issues/97.

If I had known this, I would not have used the code in this repository.

GPL only require source code to be provided if you're provided the binary and only the source code to that version of binary.

If they only distribute newer version of binary to a limited group, they're only obliged to provide source code to that group, which as far as I can tell are all LSPosed developers anyway, so they're still clear on copyright grounds.

While GPL grants anyone who received a copy to distribute it further, they're not obliged to do so.

They're also not obliged to provide source code to a version if you have never received a copy of that version in any form.

They're also not obliged to provide access to newer version of the software or provide support, as per the license the software is provided "as is" with no warranty.

It's the same situation with Red Hat, if RHEL isn't found to have violated copyright law, then LSPosed developers aren't breaking copyright law either. If you have issues with that, petition FSF to draft a GPLv4 to require support to be provided and see how that would go.
