Thanks for the link, I wasn't aware of that discussion. The lemmy.world terms of service says:

Users are allowed to use any provided method to interact with Lemmy.World, as long as it is in good faith. VPN and/or Tor access is not explicitly disallowed, however, we reserve the right to restrict and/or limit types of access via anonymizing services to protect both our site and staff.

It looks like lemmy.world does not proactively block VPNs, but does block IP addresses that have used lemmy.world abusively, even if blocking the IPs would cause other unrelated accounts to be affected.

All I can say is that I've never been affected by such a block. But if I do get affected, I'll switch to a different instance or even a different service such as Piefed and Mbin.

lemmy.world does not allow the use of vpn to post.

That is definitely not true. I'm using one right now, and there is a VPN community at [email protected].

Gumroad made itself more transparent by releasing its source code and becoming a source-available project. That deserves recognition, even though Gumroad is not open source due to its restrictive license. Software is only open source if it does not discriminate against any person or group, even when the discrimination is viewed as positive.

Placing tariffs on US Big Tech services would accelerate the adoption and development of free and open source software, which benefits not only Europeans, but also people in the US and the rest of the world.

The FuriPhone FLX1 meets all of your requirements:

• It runs the Debian-based FuriOS, which is FOSS.
• Among phones with Linux (excluding Android) preloaded, its specifications are among the best available, including a camera with PDAF and OIS, a 120Hz screen, and a replaceable 5,000 mAh battery. It also supports 5G and VoLTE, and has IP68 water resistance.
• FuriOS includes Android app support via a fork of Waydroid.
• The phone and the Linux distro are actively maintained.
• Furi Labs is based in Hong Kong.

Most of the people I've introduced to Linux don't even use the shell. Beginner-friendly Linux distros are perfectly usable without ever touching a terminal, just as most people use Windows without ever touching PowerShell (or worse, the Registry Editor).

Also, make an account on OpenStreetMap (OSM), which is what Organic Maps uses for data. OSM is the Wikipedia of maps. You can use Organic Maps or any other OSM editor to add anything that's missing and correct anything that's wrong or out of date, then see your changes in the next map update.

KDE's fractional scaling is better than GNOME's after Plasma 6 was released, in my experience. While GNOME still requires some technical expertise to enable fractional scaling, KDE Plasma 6 supports it out of the box.

Since this laptop uses Plasma 6 on Wayland, I'm not sure why this reviewer chose to reduce the screen resolution instead of adjusting the scaling when both settings are right next to each other.

About the technical part, Signal uses the Signal Protocol instead of RCS. (Google also uses the Signal Protocol to encrypt some RCS messages in Google Messages, but the Signal Protocol and RCS are not the same thing.)

Make sure your rice isn't from Arkansas, Louisiana, or Texas, because rice from those states are contaminated with higher levels of arsenic.

Molly is a Signal client fork that uses UnifiedPush instead of Google's push notification service.
