Person uninformed about these things here with an uninformed question: What are the chances that the Mozilla Foundation itself can be forked like the code can be?

The only correction i’d do to this message is to stop calling this person “Zuck”, Mark Zuckerberg IS NOT YOUR FRIEND, stop calling these fucking bastards cutesy friend names or on a first name basis (like “Elon”, Zuck" and others like this) , they DO NOT deserve them and they WANT to be called that

And that’s one of the many reasons why we want private communications, we want no creepy megacorp listening in

It’s not gone, it has gone underground, i like this model to describe the current internet

MANY of the old places of the internet are still active, heavily overshadowed by the current centralized feudal web of 5 websites all with screenshots of each other but STILL alive. Hell, even IRC is still running, and i understand so does Usenet!

Okay, I’m going to start using “the panda colored ball” to refer to football balls just to annoy my football fan friends

So, appealing to actual fucking nazis isn’t actually profitable? Oh noes!

There should be a crowdfunding to project a giant looping video of this mod in front of their offices for a year

I understood it was Google-only, great to be mistaken about it. Still, the app should also support that geojson importation format too, there shouldn’t be a need for external tools, SPECIALLY since it’s what Google Takeout gives you, this very much should be a feature of the app.

Good and all, but as somebody mentioned on the Masto comments this shouldn’t be needed, this is taking an open JSON file and turning it into a proprietary Google-only format so that Organic Maps can import it, that feature should be on the app itself already.

Also as you’re uploading that data to a random website you’re effectively doxxing yourself as your important addresses likely will be there, your home, your workplace, etc.

Edit: Was mistaken and corrected below, the format IS a standard, not proprietary, in addition the author answered in Masto clarifying that all the conversion happens in the browser without uploading anything. That said, i do insist that the app should support uploading in this geojson format, specially since it’s what Google Takeout gives you

Somebody was suggesting this was deliberately done to bleed Pocketpair out of money and halt development that way, patent cases take years to be solved, and all during this time they have to keep paying lawyers. Nintendo likely has a small army of in-house lawyers so it’s no trouble to them, but to their victims it’s life-ruining.

Youtube and Amazon/Audible are already having a monopoly there, they’re gonna get squashed like a bug

Have you seen an XMPP setup these days that doesn’t have installed all the extra stuff to allow encryption, voice and a lot of other bells and whistles?

Naturists and the topfreedom movement also face these same challenges, all with the same root cause

What’s the “best practices” for DNS these days besides running your own local service?

“We MUST make the foxes the watchers of the hen-house! It will make everybody safer!”

Only 42?

Need to retry this at some point, last time i tried it, the Kindle app worked in Wine but had no connection, i suspect this was a Wine configuration issue

There’s absolutely nothing preventing it
