F-Droid says this has “anti-features”:

• This app promotes or depends entirely on a non-free network service
  • Tethered to commercial Jawg.io for map tiles
  • FOSS OpenStreetMap.org and Westnordost.de to get quests, upload data, etc.

What is that about and is it ok? Would my collected data be going to a non-free enterprise? How exactly is the data used, does it go back to openstreetmaps?

yeah denied lol

A project to give me money in exchange for me writing software.

I tried the servo test browser and it’s not ready for normal websites by a long shot. Hope it makes progress quickly of course…

Welcome to the United States of Licking Trumps Asshole

there’s nlnet.nl, but I think you have to apply for a grant.

Might be nice to have a foundation that would seek out key open source maintainers and direct funds to them, without them needing to self promote. The nebraska initiative?

What my comment is replying to:

I am asking about the context that people use the term “far right” as a collective insult.

far right is nazis pal

ok there was that time I left a comment on a librewolf issue

Got one of those and not even sure I have a codeberg account.

pulled in my K9 settings and good to go, seems like.

they are only ‘hardcore’ because of the poor desktop environment integration.

I’d leave the sorting up to the users. So for a post where 5 users tagged it as ‘baroque music’, and 5000 tagged it as ‘boring’, one could sort the feed by ‘total tags’ on a post indicating general interest (5005), or just ‘total tags I follow’ which might just be ‘baroque music’ (5). Or maybe reverse sort by tags so ‘boring’ stuff is towards the bottom.

I’d think that ignoring tags would be a thing for users, so “libtards” or whatever could be ignored.

Tag mods could ban problematic users, so someone could get banned for tagging ‘corporate lies’ where the mods think it doesn’t belong. Offenders could make their own ‘corporate liez’ tag though, I suppose.

A tag hierarchy might be desirable, like everything tagged ‘baroque’ also getting ‘music’ automatically. Perhaps through agreements with the mods of each tag.

‘archive of our own’ I’ve heard has a solid system of tag moderation. Not sure it would be appropriate for a system like this.

What I think would be interesting would be a link aggregator based around tags rather than subcommunities. Moderation would be based around these tags. Your feed would be based on tag queries. Posts could have multiple tags, assigned by the original poster or by users. Assigning tags would have a similar effect to voting, so a post might get tagged by 1000 people as ‘corporate lies’, or as ‘music’, or whatever else.

Nice thing about this would be finer grained queries with news, for instance. Could get ‘politics’, but minus ‘corporate lies’.

I went the jank monstrosity path. Well, a few scripts anyway.

I use an app called SimpleSSHD on the phone that lets me ssh in. Then rsync to transfer files. The script to sync pictures is like this:

# file 'droidip' contains the local wifi ip of the phone.  
dip=$(cat droidip)

rsync --append-verify --progress  -avz -e "ssh -p 2222" root@$dip:/sdcard/DCIM/Camera newphonepix

Truthfully it was as much about learning rsync as anything, and now I’m sticking with it because momentum I guess. adb is way faster if you really need to move a lot of files.

ok where these files at?

pricing is in line with the top ipad. I consider it kind of an activist move to buy one of these though, more about supporting a cause than getting a device with maximal functionality.

I like this approach of having a model locally and running it locally. I’ve been using the firefox website translator and its great. Handy and it doesn’t send my data to google. That I know of, ha.
