Striving7340on Omacom Foundation launches with $8M

that guy is a debian developer first and foremost from reading his contributions that ends up volunteering to do other projects releases to ease up debian. He was/is hired by ubuntu to maintain packages on the desktop.

So according to you, all debian developers and contributions are pedos. Take your meds.

Lol, so you went from "this guy is a pedo" to "this guy is loosely associated with something that's associated with something else that a felon volunteers on"

Striving7340on Building on ATProto

Apologies if "worship" came across as calling you a cult, but it doesn't seem that you took what I said too seriously either.

Striving7340on Building on ATProto

ATProto and its advocates increasingly sound like all the crypto-based decentralized platforms that failed. The difference is that crypto people actually had reasons to run nodes, they got paid to, while ATProto expects enthusiasts to do so for the love of the game or act like bluesky and have 99% of the "decentralized" platform on a centralized node.

It never catches on with application developers because it requires you to already worship the protocol and build around it.

Striving7340on Phosh 0.56.0

Phosh is not based on gnome-shell and has its own settings and apps, but it does use parts of gnome, no reason to reinvent the wheel.

> Seems like a very strange bundle to bring in for an extremely power constrained device, where every % of increased battery drain is noticed by the user

I'm sure you can make your Frankenstein version that would be 10% as usable and secure as phosh by removing everything but for most users, 100mb more ram and 1% more battery drain for an OS aiming to be a daily driver is something that's worth it.
