It’s more secure than not using one (if it’s open source and offline), so just do it.

Haven’t seen a difference but I also block / downvote everybody / community that posts ai slob so …
Nextcloud has a poll-addon that (afaik) doesn’t have all the bells and whistles Google has but it seemed super descent every time I’ve come across it.
I was wondering about singeling out Godot here as well, it’s such a wholesome project, imho
Meh, I don’t think I agree. Sure, these things are problems and sure they are a problem in OS spaces (the last one obs only with OS) but
- projects have the right to choose what communication systems they use (most of them are unpaid volunteers doing this in their free time I’m pretty certain), yes, some are more cumbersome than others for different sets of people, it sure would be cool if they’d use the one I/you like. But that goes for literally any project / product?
- toxic people exist in all communities, if moreso in OS than (random example) Star Wars fandom, is very debatable. How toxic are the Microsoft forums? I honestly have no idea.
- Mozilla doing what Mozilla does, yeah, it’s a meme at this point. Whatever.
small opensource can do nothing until big opensource does the step…
Why? Small open source projects totally can use "modern"™ communication channels, have nice communities and don’t enshitify. Why would they not because big project (in your opinion) aren’t doing it? I overall have super good experiences with almost all OS forums I’ve ever been to, Manjaro, Inscape, Krita, Godot, KDE, Bazzite, Fedora and so many others.
+1
I learned Inkscape / Scribus / Krita (which was not easy after 15+ years hooked on Adobe BS) while still on Windoge, had used Linux before so the switch was really painless.
If it’s not too high, I think that’s ok, running an asset store is probably even more work than I think it is.
Or might be a sign that capitalists wanna keep on siloing their networks once the hype has cooled down.
Oh, I didn’t know that. Models were people have actually actively consented to their data being used for it (not “Wikipedia is CC so it’s fine”)?
Ohhh, I was just thinking the other day that it would be nice to have something like this!
Title kinda doesn’t make sense to me, they argue to donate monthly instead of a lump sump which I can understand, a lot of individual artist / podcasters etc prefer this as well, because it’s easier for them /Gnome to work / plan with a steady stream of income instead of random payments here and there.
Which I totally understand. But personally I’m not a fan of lots of small amounts cluttering up my (digital) bank statements every month, so I tend do just do “amount I’m comfortable to pay monthly x 12” once a year (sorry 😬).
we give, we take, we give again, and we are all in this together.
No, the AI megacorps only steal and then make you pay to use their illegal and unethical services. How naive is this?
What problems did you encounter? I dimly not using the official docker-compose file but one from else (because I wanted to use Http?) but personally I didn’t find it as complicated as setting up Immich or Invoice Ninja or other services that have multiple containers that need to talk to each other.
Mmmh, I don’t think the app ever got disabled by Android during my days of testing (I actually reinstalled yesterday and having a look again, battery drain seems a bit better now so far … ). But obviously a system service is always gonna be prioritised higher than a user app. But as I said I didn’t have this problem with this app (actually the only one I can think of is Syncthing and with that I’m not sure if it’s not the app going to a sleep mode or something by itself).
This seems to be a non-MS alternative:
What does device-only mean in this context? That it’s only stored on your phone?
Why would they, there’s nothing to gain for them in doing that, so they won’t. They only care about profit.
