The term "open source" is well defined by OSS. It seems like the client itself is open source, but the server is under a proprietary license. So yeah, this aint it.
I hope you dont give up on it for too long, I think it's a great OS once you get the hang of nix. To this day, its the only OS I trust where I could install anything I want and can still rollback without worries. Also I can make sure that my installation is the same as others, which means other people can literally just copy paste my config to test.
