Fair enough. In bad times, that is true for me as well. But these times pass eventually. At least they always have in the past.

Case in point :)

Same. I mostly try to be honest with myself as I found that copium rarely is helpful. We‘re in this mess now and we can either sulk or get going. I choose to get going day after day. Hows that for aspirational statements? :)

Being cynical and defeatist is a coping mechanism. Like racism, its a form of dealing with a continuously shitty situation while not addressing the real problem.

If you look at the small amount of people that drink 1000$ wine bottles for lunch while you‘re struggling to pay the rent, then you find the problem these cynics are unable to address.

I personally prefer postmarketOS but everything is better than stock android/ios

They could go full deep packet inspection like other authoritarian regimes. But otherwise its gonna be tough.

You need to have a phone that doesnt read your screen though. Iphones eg read everything you do and probably share that data. No idea about android.

Damn thats a depressing read. Why isnt this shit illegal?

Yes. I just researched and found out minecraft uses its own engine based on lwjgl. It’s a little bit like whatsapp and matrix. While whatsapp uses(d?) xmpp, matrix is the protocol, not the client.

I used modrinth launcher since the whole platform is open source afaik. Big fan.

That said, I stopped playing minecraft since microsoft has perverted everything I liked about it to make it a childrens game with microtransactions. They recently announced ramping up the breakneck speed of updates to make it more like a live service game which may devastate the mod community.

I since made a voxelibre server which works surprisingly well. I also maintain a minecraft inspired texture pack since I dislike visual change.

In any case. Good luck.

Pure principle is the answer. People who buy a game should be able to play the game as long as they wish, sell it, give it their grandkids for all I care.

The problem with your argument is „doesnt affect me, wont bother“.

Think of anything you like or even love. Now think of it being taken away, because someone else doesnt care about it. You think thats fair?

Hi friend! Good to see this insightful comment comes from you.

Iirc there should be a way to complain to the authorities about this, right?

Its actually the same with real money. Since we gave up the gold standard, money has become a digital currency as well. Both are used to manipulate us.

I didnt even know about this one. Pretty awesome. Is it a drop in replacement for jellyfin and plex or different?

Sounds like we might meet at the congress in december. :)

And I‘m with you on needing a phone that works. Sadly, wishing it were in that place right now doesnt help. On the other hand neither does just jumping in the deep end.

With open source stuff, real people need to help out, either with work (eg testing) or with money, because the „build company, make open source thing, profit“ doesnt really work that way. Companies like pine64 deserve to be flush with money because they actually care to make something thats ours.

So yes, I also have a main phone for work atm while tinkering with the postmarketOS phone until I deem it stable enough for daily use.

And thats what I suggest to people who are willing and have at least one old phone they cant or dont use anymore.

P.s.: the fact that there are this many distinct phones that do at least boot while they are barely able to pay one person for dev work is actually great news.

I dont know about caddy but nginx proxy manager does this very well. Also, if running in docker, you can expose the port that runs ssh for forgejo und a different port than the host machine‘s (eg 2222). In that case you just put the remote in with the port and call it a day.

I wish they got sanctioned into oblivion.

Apple is getting their butt handed to them in china. Very nice.

This is the way
