Some aggressive and/or anti user changes in Chromium for Chrome are very difficult to change back and maintain, just look at Brave differences.

And Android isn’t publishing the source code publicly, only as a dump from time to time, so open source projects do not get access to security updates & new features…

I’m sorry to tell you this but open source is NOT in a good place right now. Companies dominate and destroy, with fancy ribbons on top. What we need is a model outside of capitalism, where projects made for humanity can be created without needing to make investors richer.

As another data point, I’m writing this from my fold 6 which is about one year old, with no scratches nor marks of any kind.

That’s flux, isn’t it?

Yep, ded. So sad.

I blame capitalism

It is a lot of fun! Right now I’m back to arch, since I don’t have a lot of time, but funtoo does right those older decisions in gentoo which do not make sense in these day and age. And the updates are fast, really fast, since they use git!

The downside is the docs aren’t as good. Not even close. The wiki for gentoo is a great source of information.

Gentoo isn’t cool anymore. You should switch to funtoo, so you can have fun too!

I’ve been using kagi for a few months (6 according to my bank). It is paid. It is great. It’s so good I’ve switched my wife to it since Google was giving her a lot of garbage (she’s a non techie) and she says “it feels like Google used to be. The answers are what I was looking for. I forgot I was using Kagi”
