Cuba does not want them there. They want the US out of Guantanamo and have for a long time.
Basically the US-friendly pre-revolution government gave the US a perpetual lease to the land. After the revolution the Communist government wanted them out but they don't really have the military power to force them. The US still sends them checks (which they don't cash) for whatever pittance the old agreement listed so they can claim it's "legal". That territory is completely under US oversight, there is no land connection to it.
Don't blame Cuba. They're cool, and if you ever get a chance to visit you definitely should. It was very cheap when I went. Cheap flight from Miami and very cheap Airbnb in downtown Old Havana. Beautiful, safe, and full of history and kind people.
1.0 is planned to release later this year with new features. They're testing it right now on https://voyager.lemmy.ml/ (though it seems to be down at the moment)
The details I can see right now are mostly technical but I'm sure we'll get a prettier list of features as release gets closer.
lemmy.meme definitely has potential but it looks like somebody already snagged it. It was registered back in November but it doesn't look like anybody's done anything with it. It expires in November of this year, if you want to try and snag it.
I like the backspace there like Colemak has. I can do Fn-Backspace(capslock) to activate Caps Lock but that's something I added to my Keyboard separately.
The OS in general isn't ready for daily use though. It's maybe doable if all you need is text, calls, camera, and a browser. And the calls only work in some countries. But it's fun to play with.
Puerto Rico? Miami? Texas? All hurricane prone areas with huge Spanish speaking populations. Parts of Miami like Hialeah have over 90% of households speaking Spanish.
This is a bilingual country. We have the second most Spanish speakers in the world only behind Mexico. Learn some Spanish it really won't fucking kill you.
It seems like Linux-compatible android handsets stopped around 2021. Except a few bespoke models that are hard to get your hands on outside of Europe.
I have a OnePlus Nord N10 flashed with Ubuntu Touch as a tinker device, unfortunately in the US it's not daily-able because we shut down 3g and 2g networks and they still haven't managed to get VoLTE working on Ubuntu Touch yet (though it may be coming in the next year!) so phone calls don't work.
There's also the Pixel 3a/3a XL which are plentiful and cheap but I like the N10 a bit more because of the additional RAM. Makes it feel a little less old compared to the Pixel.
If you can get your hands on a Fairphone, Pinephone or Volla those are great but hard to get outside the EU.
If you have any traceable Italian citizenship it is possible to claim Italian citizenship. Even like great-great-great-great-grandparents. But there's a lot of asterisks involved. There are offices that specialize in this that might help (for a fee).
But if you DO qualify and get all the paperwork and get an appointment and approved, you get full citizenship immediately. Italy always considered you a citizen since birth but did not know about you.
