Availability is hard. Many are only able to be purchased in the West.

And make it #000 pure black if you do… I have written about why

I would 'free but folks need to learn some Nix basics before the jump in headlong into bad community recommendations like starting with flakes. It’s hard to just drop into Nix without some commitment.

Lol. Even this $100 phone can get a headphone jack but the massively-funded Android OEMs aside Sony can’t offer this feature.

I really wish that the Firefox phone had gained more support

KaiOS 4.x just dropped with Fx 128 I think. You will be on an underpowered flip phone, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing…

I got a Sailfish OS last year seeing the writing on the wall already with all the bootloader locking. It’s been bumpy to put it lightly, but at least it has Android apps to help get over the gaping holes of basic missing apps like a halfway decent XMPP client. …But at least native WhisperFish lets you get around the lack of Signal on most non-duopoly platforms.

You could make a better UX on ActivityPub without inventing a new, incompatible protocol that has a centralization problem. Email is decentralized just fine. They could have also made proposals to ActivityPub or extending it like most applications do. It is just venture capital bullshit cloning Tvitter which makes it more familiar rather than an objectively easier UX.

I would say the same & I don’t even use it—but I would trust it being around the longest & is better than GNOME IMO.

I use aerc thru home-manager accounts on NixOS

Alcohol is bad for you health. Workplaces should be better so folks don’t feel the need to injest poison to tolerate it.

I find this pretty bad since everything seems to be compatible until it is too late & it is already adopted. I would like to see more uptake of the alternatives.

Jerboa vs. the website do different things since they render Markdown differently. Markdown itself is so spartan that it doesn’t have many things users want or need, so a bunch of incompatible forks get made & everyone just pretends it is all the same when in reality, it often lies on a single tool’s implementation.

Take AsciiDoc with its verse directive or reStructuredText with its line-block directive. Both get you poetry-style newlines on demand & are a part of the spec instead of left to the implementer.

Yahoo is Bing too

Cherry on the shit sundae was a couple months ago when Google started to require JavaScript be enabled for search.

No. DDG still puts less priority in small blogs over Reddit posts. All bigger search engines put way too much stock & rank in corpo social media.

Pumpkin or peach ice cream has the strongest childhood association for me—a place by the highway sold it fresh & seasonally. These aren’t common flavors either.

& abduco can work if you only need attach/detach

I maintain quite a few packages on Nixpkgs, so I use Atom to subscribe to a release feeds for those projects so I can get a form of notification independent of the project’s code forge (mostly meaning I can spend less time on MS GitHub).
