Gl.iNet no longer open source? (lemmy.world)

After looking into travel routers a bit, I quickly came across Gl.iNet which seems to be a leader in the space. It seems they use OpenWRT which is great, but with some special sauce on top of it.

In a few different posts I've seen people mention that they are no longer open source. Does anyone know if this is the case? I see some activity on their Github repo, but am not quite sure which parts people are worried about being closed.

This is disappointing. I have one of their travel routers. I guess they still make travel routers that can be flashed with stock openwrt so those are still an option
