I mean it did work for years on LineageOS, but last month I’ve switched to GrapheneOS and it’s less reliable, so who knows what’s the problem

Having run WA for years on a LineageOS phone without google services, I can attest that this is a myth. You just have to turn off battery optimization

You can also use their DNS server without having to install anything

OK I read the bandcamp thing and… It’s not enshittification at all. Can we stop applying the term to every online service that kinda gets slightly worse for some reason or another?

Just in case:

Here is how platforms die: first, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die. I call this enshittification

None of those things happened with Bandcamp

You’re probably better off using dedicated websites for each site you need to download videos from.

They are usually ridden with ads, but it’s not a problem if you use uBlock Origin or similar addons

While I kinda like what Bellingcat does, you do have a point. Crowdsourcing decisions rarely lead to good outcomes

But it looks like Proton does not choose the beneficiaries. From their statement:

‘Recipients are nominated by the Proton community and selected based on community feedback. Proton doesn’t nominate the recipients. Recipients cannot be changed after the raffle begins and the fact that some find Bellingcat controversial was not known beforehand.

GUYS, IT’S HAPPENING

Running it on my Oneplus 5T right now!

Axios is very good. Very dry journalism - almost crossing into news agency territory -, very fact-based, always mentioning the different positions on the matter at hand. They do talk about politics but you can just visit the other sections. They are especially big on tech stuff

EDIT: For how to get news, I use RSS. Inoreader in particular lets you subscribe to entire sites or just specific pages. It’s possibly the best piece of software I’ve ever tried

It’s not only that. Companies are getting richer and richer and they could easily afford LOTS of employees. Microsoft reached the trillion-dollar market cap and a few days later fired 1900 people

Still awesome!

Yeah, it’s the classic “works for me” problem

That option did not work for me

THANK YOU. This behavior has been bothering me since it was introduced but I thought there was no solution

Glad to be able to help! Have fun :)

That’s the joke

BSODs

To answer that, you must understand how testing works. Packages first are updated in Sid (unstable), then they go to Testing. At a certain point of the release cycle, Testing stops being updated to become the new Stable version. So basically Testing is not constantly updated. Also, security patches don’t follow this route: instead, they arrive in Sid first (thanks to the maintainers themselves) and then they get into Stable first (by the Debian team) because Stable has the priority. Only after that, they arrive in Testing.

Also see this paragraph from the Debian Wiki regarding security:

Security for testing benefits from the security efforts of the entire project for unstable. However, there is a minimum two-day migration delay, and sometimes security fixes can be held up by transitions. The Security Team helps to move along those transitions holding back important security uploads, but this is not always possible and delays may occur. Especially in the months after a new stable release, when many new versions are uploaded to unstable, security fixes for testing may lag behind.

Also:

Compared to stable and unstable, next-stable testing has the worst security update speed. Don’t prefer testing if security is a concern.

My advice to everyone who wants Debian to be more current is to just run Sid (unstable). It’s always going to be more secure and up-to date than Testing. Also, it works like a rolling-release distro, i.e. the updates are incremental and constant

EDIT: whatever you do, read and follow this guide. apt-listbugs and apt-listchanges especially will save your ass constantly

Anything that has less than 6GB of RAM nowadays it completely useless for normal use. Don’t buy it.
