Pixelfed has always been fully opensource (and Libre) and there has been fully open source clients, like Pixeldroid, for a long time. The new iPhone app which used the name of the network made things confusing unfortunately.
For lots of people it’ll be less confusing. They open their app store and search for this Pixelfed they’ve heard of and find an official app. That’s what they expect.
