How dare they defy our daddy gaben

I would give it a month tops

That sounds too fragile

Often those sites randomly generate ids and classes, so it will work only once.

The purpose of this “verification” bullshit is to prevent piracy and adblocking via patching apks. So there will be a restriction that a given application can only be associated with one developer account (and verified at install time via apk’s signature).

Theoretically F-Droid could also change app ids when building apps which will allow them to be registered to F-Droid’s dev account but Google will likely frown upon that. There will probably be some clause against “impersonation” in their rules (Play Store rules already technically prohibit forks of open source apps, though it’s rarely enforced).

F-droid doesn’t just check for reproducibility, they build and sign apps themselves. They don’t take apks from devs, only source code (this also means that F-Droid apks are not compatible with play store apks and can’t be mutually updated die to different signatures. I.e. you can’t install app from play store or directly from dev and update it from f-droid, and vice versa).

Where are all the fuckable men?

Yeah OpenVPN is often used for business reasons (e.g. by remote workers), so it’s usually not blocked wholesale, only throttled (and known public VPNs providers and blocked via blacklisting their endpoints’ ip addresses). Wireguard meanwhile is used much more rarely so there is less fallout from blocking it completely.

Wireguard is not difficult to block either, it’s not designed to be hidden. China, Russia, etc have learned long ago how to detect and block it. The only semi-reliable way to bypass sophisticated VPN blocking techniques is to use protocols that mask as regular https traffic (and self-host it since well know public VPNs will of course be dealt with by simply blocking packets to their ip addresses).

Do you see it with all videos? Could be a problem with a specific encoding parameters that some videos use.

Also, have you installed codecs from rpmfusion? You need them for hardware decoding with non-flatpak players (and browsers) since Fedora complies with US patent law and don’t have those codecs by default, and uses h264 codec from Cisco instead which sucks. What does vainfo command says (you may need to install libva-utils)?

It has much slower release cycle and ancient kernel. For people with new hardware it’s not suitable.

No they are (were) an actual native Android apps that install automatically without needing to go through Google play. They have a much tighter sandbox and restricted access to system APIs as a safety measure.

To be antagonists.

Gimp devs will have to port it to Gtk 4 before rewriting it in Rust, because Rust Gtk 3 bindings are now obsolete lol.

Are they going to ethically source materials and production

Why would they do that?

All POSIX compatible shells have their quirks and differences because the common POSIX part is rather small, so you will need to learn them anyway when switching from one to another. Fish is not that different from them (to much less extent than something like nushell) and it benefits from having less ancient baggage.

If a messaging service requires a phone number then it’s not “secure” lol.

Haven’t used GNOME for a while, but I guess that’s a problem of open source projects in general. Though GNOME at least has Red Hat behind it.

I don’t think Fedora has a “stable” channel. It has “testing” repo from which updates are pushed to “updates” repo after approval, and that’s it. My understanding is that ublue’s “latest” channel follows Fedora’s “updates”, while “stable” seems to update weekly (though it’s unclear what happens if a package update arrives in Fedora just before “stable” image is about to be built)

Does it use the same flawed approach as Manjaro by indiscriminately delaying all updates (including critical security fixes)?
