  • Yeah, I don't have foss painted on my chest but I like the idea. It'll become more mainstream once people figure out a system to get devs paid and reduce the drawbacks of someone cloning a project, injecting ads, and providing it as a free alternative. If all those things and the issue of paying people to provide professional support for companies using it get solved. I can see a bright future for foss.

    EDIT: I've also heard graphene is is pretty good, I like my android auto though.

  • But you can't do that, the whole phone has to be open source Right down to the chipset! How are you going to know if it's respecting your privacy the hardware is a black box it doesn't matter if you have to create custom solutions to get your banking app working on it. That's kinda the standard your holding these open source devs to.

    It's not enough you spend your free time writing code with basically no compensation you have to maintain a server, pay for hosting, make sure security patches go through, troubleshooting when it goes down, write custom software to automate support tickets, and deal with people potentially trying to ddos your instance, etc.

  • I thought it was hyperbole, that sucks. If your using an Nvidia card from before 2014(kepler) those drivers aren't officially being supported anymore on linux. I'd recommend upgrading, maybe going used if your strapped for cash. 20series and later is getting a lot of love rn so id probably wouldn't go older than 20 series.

  • I'm an active Linux user and I can say it is a few, they're just so fucking annoying. They seem to respond to absolutely everything with a ten foot stick up their ass.

    The rest of us don't care and don't really talk about Linux unless you need help or are genuinely curious. Basically you almost never see a comment from the rest of us because most of us are probably introverts.

  • It doesn't mean much, it's just a metric people like around here. This number can grow and shrink just as easily with spoofed user agents strings. I think brave spoofs it and there's a chrome extension, there maybe a few more examples.

    I wouldn't take it at face value is what I'm getting at. There's just no other way to measure because most distros don't collect telemetry and Firefox doesn't seem to make theirs public.
