There’s also Flare fwiw:

MicroOS (and its flavors) update the same way Android does; as a full image

They don’t. They update with regular packages. The updates are atomic though and are only applied at next boot, so there’s less of a risk of weird breakages.

This is the best FOSS keyboard that’s under active maintenance.

I assume that might be a reference to FlorisBoard? Because development on that one as actually picked up again, but that’s only visible so far if you’re using the Beta version. They’re opreparing for a new full release.

A lot of the mainstream apps definitely have privacy issues. They often sell data about their users menstrual cycles which can theoretically be bought by anti-abortion activists/authorities on the free market to track whether someone might be pregnant.

StreetComplete and its expert editions are definitely my favourite way to contribute to OpenStreetMaps on mobile. There’s also Vespucci which allows you to do more complex stuff like add paths and shape, but the UI isn’t super great imo. Organic Maps which I use for navigation actually allows you to edit and contribute quite a bit.

Which is at least less than all the other big platforms are taking.

Or maybe the original post was simply muted for a different reason.

You hinged your entire position on theirs.

I did what? That was my first post in this entire thread.

Yes, the idiotic fallacy of giving greater weight to the opinion of an authority at the subject being discussed. It is no match to the logical chad move of giving weight to the opinion of a random internet commentator who claims something is nonsense without giving any reason or explanation why.

I don’t know if reader mode is available on the android in-app browser as I don’t use android

It is.

Personally, I would suggest antiX Linux. It is well known that the antiX name is supposed to stand for “anti politiX”

There’s also been huge waves of spam account attacks on Mastodon recently.

Was’n Quatsch!

Das sind dann die 18-jährigen, zukünftigen KI-Millionäre.

There’s a convention for websites to use robot.txt files that prescribe whether bots should be allowed to access the site. But it’s just that, a convention which malicious actors don’t need to feel beholden to. Depending on the legal framework, you could also just threaten to sue anyone using one’s data for AI without permission, but that’s probably not feasible for the average lemmy server operator.

Wie süß. Der denkt, er würde in Zukunft noch mit irgendwem koalieren, statt unter der 5%-Hürde zu versauern.

Indigenous groups have always fairly reliably voted KMT. The DPP tends to have much more progressive policies and portray themselves as more concerned about the indigenous struggle. But the KMT being the direct successor of the authoritarian government that ruled Taiwan for decades tends to have much deeper local structures and have thus been present in indigenous territories much more/for much longer.

(Also portraying the parties as Chinese or Taiwanese nationalists probably is a bit strong, as they’ve both moved towards more moderate, pro-status quo positions, although from different ends of the spectrum)

“Weather chaos” is one hell of a euphemism.

Not inherently. But since both Mastodon and Bluesky use some sort of public protocol, it is possible that people will develop some bridging software that allows both protocols to talk to each other. I think some people are already trying to build something like that, but I have no idea how well it will work/what the trade-offs will be. Maybe not every feature can be easily translated between the protocols.

But they’re (allegedly soon) federated and say they want to give control of the protocol over to an independent standards body. So like, half of the stuff you’re saying might not even really apply here.

I’m curious what lesson learned from twitter easily also applies to bluesky, as that’s genuinely not very clear to me.
