Just create a script that calls all the update commands. That's how computers work. Your apt/dnf/whatever command also calls many other commands to do its job.
And broke all the time, and was a nightmare for devs to create and maintain packages for multiple distros, and was hard to find packages outside the official repos, and could create a package version hell, and had only a very rudimentary permission system.
Yea I hate that it's a thing in anime. There are several shows that I liked, but had to stop watching when a recurring loli character entered the story. It's just so wrong to look at children that way (drawn or not) imo, makes my skin crawl!
I definitely disagree on that. SG1 (and Atlantis for that matter) were top quality till the end imo.
The point with the Ori was imo that you shouldn't follow evil gods EVEN if they have magical powers and a nice message. It made the arguments far more tricky, because they couldn't just reveal their false godhood and automatically win. To me it felt like a very natural progression of the underlying theme, kinda like the next level of difficulty.
There is no such thing as "hardly open source". Either the source is open or it isn't, and the source of Android definitely is. I think what you mean is "community driven", which is not the same thing. But open source always enables community driven forks and derivatives, which there are plenty of for Android.
But there still seems to be some issues with the relative font scaling. I have to crank up the base font size quite a bit in order to get a decent size for the editor, but then fonts are huge in all the other places. It can be fixed for posts and comments since they have their own options for it, but not for UI elements like the settings menu.
I think what's missing is a dedicated setting for the editor font scaling, or making it the same as post/comment font size.
One idea: Community owners can link their community with another, like friend requests between communities. From that point they act like one community with multiple owners. Everything is duplicated, and that includes removing content and banning users. Client side apps can show them as one community.
YT addons generally don't work on Piped, but some of the most popular ones are already built in, like SponsorBlock, DeArrow and Dislike. It does show comments, but you can't post any comments yourself. HDR videos should work since it's just pulling the video files directly from YT servers.
You can just try it out, simply replace "www.youtube.com" with "piped.video" in any YT video or channel url.
The god argument can't be contradicted because it's not based on logic. People can just make up rules for their gods, and they usually don't care if those conform to reality or logic as we know it.
E.g. I can just say that logically disproving my god is a proof of its godhood, because it defies and is beyond human understanding. That's just not something you can argue about.
Imo the more you think about it the more you realize that "god" is just a very human way to cope with feeling lonely or powerless, and life having no ultimate direction or purpose. People imagine a friend or guardian who has a plan and will set things right, and some use this shared fantasy to make others do what they want.
This sounds complicated, but it's pretty standard practice and probably a matter of minutes to set up if you have self-hosted other services before. What takes more time is the stuff that's not standard, like ominous configuration options.
I'm not strictly against personalized recommendations (hence why I said it "can" become manipulative), and you're making some good points. But I do think it's a very dangerous game to be playing.
It almost certainly requires collecting and storing very personal usage data, and it can influence people's mood and behaviour depending on what the algorithm is optimizing for (e.g. showing you stuff that makes you angry or ashamed). For that reason I think it's not just a matter of letting it loose on people. It needs to be very well communicated and explained (e.g. things like "we are showing you this because ..."), so people stay in control of their own actions.
Imo it's a bit like slot machines. Just fine for most people most of the time, but it can drag you down a dark path if you're vulnerable for whatever reason.
The key difference is whether it does what I told it to do (e.g. gather popular posts with tags I follow) or if it uses my usage data to figure out what would keep me engaged. The former is perfectly fine imo, the latter can become manipulative very quickly.
