Wonder if they will make EU-only variant of hardware and software which will be like totally different phone. They already did sideloading, USB-C and now this. What next?

newzit.com for international news, Polsat News for Polish/sport news and Slashdot for tech news. I add them to RSS whenever possible.

If you don’t buy no-name brand phones, you will get at least one major update. Even chinese brands such as xiaomi will provide updates. You can also install generic LineageOS image if your phone can be unlocked some way, official or not. It works on most devices.

But many smart TVs become useless very quick. When I was using 2015 phone in 2020, TV newer than that already loaded the lightweight Google version for unsupported browsers and vast majority sites/apps became unavailable. It used browser that was already 2 years old when it was released and never released an update to it. But when there was root vulnerability, they released a fix after long time of being basically unsupported.

Nothing. Everything your instance has is your IP address (mostly useless) and password hash (also mostly useless). Everything you have here is public. Maybe except your settings, like light/dark mode.

I use Gitea as project hosting and personal wiki. I also host Nextcloud for files and news and Jellyfin for movies and music.

In this order.

If there’s no such thing as authentication when you view posts, you have no privacy anyway. Everything you post online can be seen by anyone and archived anytime. It’s not like you have privacy when you post now.

Only real threats of Threads federation are EEE and server overload. Not the people from there or privacy. If someone wants to see some content you don’t want to see, like some opinion you don’t like, they should be able to see it. I don’t understand why there would be such list, it would be pure censorship and waste of time. I have heard Threads has a pretty good moderation, so that solves this problem anyway.

I don’t get what would defederating with Facebook-federated instances gives you, though.

But you know, it’s literally #1 on the charts and it has AI. I must try it!

Pulling out the plug would certainly work, and not just for vim.

Enough people are used to the proprietary apps, so it doesn’t matter for them. 0,01% of users flowing to other protocols for just part of their conversations isn’t going to hurt them.

Do people really set their real birth date on online services? Would only set it on Facebook tbh. Or when you need to pay, etc.

What was the last time you clicked a twitter link and it was any good?

Do you mean Lemmy subs? Then both on Lemmy and kbin you have RSS icon on sub pages.
