Huh, I had no idea OpenBoard was discontinued
I mean, it’s not on their server. It’s hosted on dbzer0.
Isn’t it funny that people always see their own depictions of idols, afterlifes, etc?
No. It’s religious quackery.
But do they ignore existing implementations of a feature when they want to add that feature? And make it crappier when federated?
“Foam mouthed Threads opponents”
Threads is quite blatantly just going to throw it’s weight around. It’s not in good faith. They’re already not going to properly implement ActivityPub (which they apparently would do, according to pro-Threads federation people), and so certain content will appear different on Threads and AP. And of course threads is massive already as if you have an Instagram account you have a Threads account.
Smaller services and services which aren’t megacorps are fine. Honestly, BlueSky federation seems like a good thing to me. But we’ll have to see about that.
My point is there’s a line between “federate to get more exposure and connections” and “federate to get EEE’d”. Threads crosses that line. BlueSky I don’t know about. They’re very different scenarios.
I mean, there’s a reason there are so many distros. They’re for different needs.
Some people seem to prioritise a little convenience above absolutely everything else, which leads to Ubuntu, but people like me want proprietary software to burn in hell, so we wouldn’t use Ubuntu. Ubuntu is not suitable for our needs. It also wouldn’t be suitable for having an easily customiseable OS, which a lot of people like.
Very nice!
Correct. Meaning it can’t be turned proprietary because if they distribute copies, they must distribute the source code to everyone who gets them, under the GPL.
They’re GPL’ed, so I’d like to see them try.
They might as well have though 🙃
Redistributing modifications or otherwise modifying, improving and sharing software isn’t stealing…
Their “exception” basically defeats the point of the free license it uses (Apache2.0). It’s more source-available than libre or open source, thinly veiled by the Apache license at the top of the project. I find it interesting that they chose a free license to base it on in the first place if they then go on to invalidate a good chunk of it’s user protections.
If they really don’t want people to pass off other work as theirs, they could have just used the 4-clause BSD license, with it’s advertising clause, or Apache 1.0, also with an advertising clause (not great for libre licenses, but would fit and wouldn’t be quite so bad as what they’ve done).
The Exynos S10e is kind of small compared to other modern phones? It’s definitely bigger than what you want, but you’ll probably have trouble finding a phone that size nowadays.
Hey, even ChromeOS itself runs off of the computer.
You don’t need to use the terminal to install a program at all, at least on Debian with KDE Plasma. You can either download a .deb file and install it with the graphical deb installer, or you can open the software centre (Discover for KDE) and search for it. You can even add extra repositories graphically (and for Debian, you probably are going to want to enable the non-free repo by doing this, which I think has a tick box).
I’ve also never had Linux break on me, unless I broke it myself after poking things I shouldn’t poke.
Good point. I think something like a short questionnaire asking what the user is interested in and how they align, stuff like that, then showing a randomised list of instances that match that would be a better idea, then.
Either way, I still think the current way of listing the instances needs to change.
Yeah. Personally, I also think the join-lemmy.org page should just be a randomised list of instances, not “recommended” and “popular”. It’ll help strengthen the decentralisation and make sure that instances are able to cope with a lot of new users coming to Lemmy easier.
