You’re gonna pay an absurd amount of money for a disposable laptop, only to remove the best thing about it…?

It seems the things that are most important to me, no one else cares about, because they’re always missing from these reviews.
I haven’t come across any limitations. Been using it for years. Plex became trash around the time they started forcing streaming channels into the feed and sharing my watch history without my consent.
No one develops for Mac either, so I’d say it’s valid.
Does the existence of Wine compatibility layer discourages the creation of native Linux games?
I’d be surprised if devs weren’t ignoring Linux games in favor of just using Proton. It greatly decreases the required time and effort.
That assumes he wouldn’t have been prosecuted for the same thing today…
out-competing them for sales…
Boy that is a really mental gymnastics way of saying “profiting from someone else’s work”.

No they don’t, you can sign up with a VoIP provider.
How do you even exist without a phone number. How do you get cellular data? Does the government not require you to have one? Your employer? What about all the services that require one?
Yes it does
That’s not anything to do with Jellyfin, that’s something to do with your hardware.
Signal requires a phone number on setup.
It is dumb and annoying and inconvenient but doesn’t affect its use or privacy.
I do agree that SimpleX seems like the best chat option.
it’s also effectively tied to Google services due to the app distribution
It’s been recently added to FDroid.
and push notification channels
You can use NTFY with Molly (which has been on FDroid for some time).
network-level metadata monitoring by anyone with sufficient access/influence at Signal or their data center provider (such as a government who doesn’t like encrypted messaging).
This one is just a straight-up lie. Everything on the server is encrypted and no one has the keys except the participants.
The biggest issue with Matrix is that the server collects ALL the metadata. If that’s your server, that’s fine. If thats the default matrix.org server that almost everyone uses, you might as well be using WhatsApp. Same thing goes if any of those people are conversing with people on your server, as they will store all redundant metadata on their server as well.
Signal is easier to use, more private, and faster.
I like it a lot. If you’re looking to get started there is a groups directory bot. The biggest problem is notifications are very slow. Sometimes hours behind.
Ah yeah. It’s kinda complicated and hard to sum up in a short comment. You can message me on SimpleX if you need help. I’m not a genius but I do run about a dozen of my own services.
Not only is it not necessary but it’s not recommended.
I agree. They have a language filter but if the video has English subtitles they seem to think that’s good enough…
Mastodon is the same way. I think the default language is English and just no one bothers to change it when they post…
I mean mostly that it works and is easy and intuitive, and has a single dedicated version of every piece of software that’s made.
I like Linux as an alternative to Windows but it’s a nightmare to figure out how to use.
